[T AI]ΛIOC KAICAP - ANTΩNEINO[C], laureate head right / EΠI ΔIOCKOVPIΔ[OV] ΓP - MAΓ - NHTΩN, Themistokles, nude to hips, sitting left on throne with lion's-feet, left hand at parazonium hanging at his left side, with right hand holding an oval shield inscribed with (?)EM/(?)AN/OC in three lines set on cippus; right behind him a horse standing right, head turned left. Very rare, F+. Hoeft coll.
This coin was very difficult to interpret because of the depiction of the male figure, nude, with parazonium, very tall upper part of the body, but it suggests Themistokles. There is another rare type of him sacrificing before an altar, where he is similarily depicted. Themistokles is the famous hero of Salamis who had to flee from Athens after an ostrakismos. His former enemy, the Persian king Artaxerxes I, accommodated him and made him satrap of Lampsakos and Magnesia ad Maeandrum due to his merits at Salamis.

“The first city one comes to after Ephesos is Magnesia, which is an Aiolian city . . . In the present city is the temple of Artemis Leukophryene, which in the size of its shrine and in the number of its votive offerings is inferior to the temple at Ephesos, but in the harmony and skill shown in the structure of the sacred enclosure is far superior to it. And in size it surpasses all the sacred enclosures in Asia except two, that at Ephesos (to Artemis) and that at Didymoi (to Apollo)†(Strabo, Geography 14. 1. 40).
