Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate head of Zeus facing right, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition with curling hair bound by a laurel wreath, the features boldly modelled in high relief against a plain field. The portrait displays characteristic late Hellenistic die-cutting style, with the neck slightly draped. The flan is irregular in shape, as typical of hammered provincial bronzes of Lycia.

Aanvullende informatie

Arycanda was a Lycian hill city of modest political weight, though it gained a footnote in history when its citizens petitioned Maximinus Daia around 311 AD to suppress Christianity — one of the few documented civic anti-Christian petitions from the ancient world. This coin predates that episode by centuries, issued during the period when Lycia oscillated between Seleucid pressure and the expanding reach of Rhodes before Rome formalized the region as a provincia in 43 AD.
