Reverse description Eagle standing left in profile, wings closed, set within a shallow incuse square divided by diagonal lines forming a mill-sail or quadripartite incuse pattern. The bird's head is turned to the left with beak slightly open, rendered in a compact, stylized archaic manner. The monogram ΑΜ (abbreviation for Magnesia) appears within the incuse field adjacent to the eagle. The incuse technique is characteristic of early Ionian fractional coinage of the fifth century BC.
