| Additional information |
Temnos was a small Aeolian city on the Hermos River in western Asia Minor, politically marginal enough that its coinage is largely absent from ancient literary sources. The city minted sporadically under shifting Attalid and later Roman provincial influence during this century, producing small bronzes primarily for local market use rather than regional trade.
SNG Levante 1674 ties this piece to a well-documented but thinly represented civic series.
