| Beschrijving keerzijde | Hades, standing and leaning forward in a galloping quadriga driven to the right, forcibly seizing Persephone, who struggles in his grasp, a dynamic mythological composition referencing the Rape of Persephone — a subject of particular civic and religious significance at Magnesia ad Maeandrum. The four horses are depicted in full gallop, conveying violent motion. The Greek magistrate legend encircles the design, naming the local strategos responsible for coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Magnesia ad Maeandrum's civic coinage under Antoninus Pius was tied directly to the tenure of local magistrates, and the name ΔΙΟΣΚΟΥΡΙΔΗΣ ΓΡΑΤΟΣ preserved in the legend dates this issue to a specific, recoverable administration — one of several Magnesian series where the strategos effectively signed the bronze. The city sat on a frequently silted branch of the Maeander and had a complicated relationship with neighboring Miletus, whose conventus jurisdiction it fell under for Roman administrative purposes despite Magnesia's own deep civic pride.
