| Aanvullende informatie |
RPC I 2761 is among the larger autonomous bronzes struck by Rhodes during the early imperial period, when the island retained nominal freedom under Rome despite being drawn increasingly into the orbit of provincial administration. The magistrate name preserved in the legend — Hypsikles — is otherwise unattested in the historical record, making this coin one of the few surviving traces of his tenure.
Rhodes lost its free status entirely under Claudius in 44 AD, a punishment for executing Roman citizens without imperial authorization.
