| Beschrijving keerzijde | Artemis, clad in short hunting costume with a quiver visible over her right shoulder, seated to the right upon the prow of a galley. She holds a bow in her right hand, her pose reflecting the deity's role as huntress and patron of the Magnesian league. To the right of the prow, a dolphin swims downward, a symbol evoking the maritime associations of Magnesia. Above, the monogram ΩΜΥ appears in the upper field, serving as a magistrate's or mint official's mark. The ethnic legend ΜΑΓΝΗ ΤΩΝ is disposed in the field, identifying the issuing community. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Magnetes were a Thessalian tribal confederation centered on the Pagasitic Gulf, and their autonomous coinage — issued during a narrow window before Roman administrative reorganization progressively strangled Greek civic minting — reflects a community asserting local identity while already operating under Roman shadow. By the 140s BC, Macedonia had been a Roman province for over two decades, and Thessaly's remaining free cities were acutely aware of their diminishing room to maneuver.
The BCD collection references here carry weight: the Bcd Thessaly sales remain the benchmark for this region's coinage, and a piece appearing in both Thessaly I and II indicates it passed through specialist scrutiny twice.
