| Reverse description | Cybele, the Anatolian mother goddess, enthroned and seated left upon a high-backed throne, holding a patera in her extended right hand and resting her left arm upon a tympanum (drum); a lion, her sacred attribute, is depicted at her feet to the left. The composition reflects the strong local veneration of Cybele at Magnesia ad Sipylum. The reverse legend, distributed around the field, records the name and rank of the presiding civic magistrate (strategos) together with the ethnic of the issuing city. |
