| Reverse description | Bull butting left, rendered with musculature in high relief, standing upon a maeander pattern border that serves as a groundline. The ethnic abbreviation MAΓN appears in the upper field, identifying the issuing city of Magnesia ad Meandrum. A grain ear symbol is positioned to the right of the bull, serving as a secondary type. The magistrate's name NIΣAIOΣ is inscribed in the exergue, identifying the civic official responsible for this issue. The composition reflects the standard reverse type of Magnesian silver coinage of the fourth century BC. |
