| Aanvullende informatie |
Keramos was a minor Carian coastal city that spent much of the Hellenistic period caught between the competing ambitions of Rhodes and the Attalid kingdom of Pergamon. The date range of this issue brackets the period following the Roman settlement at Apamea in 188 BC, which stripped Rhodes of its Carian possessions, and ends near the creation of the Roman province of Asia in 129 BC — a political reorganization that effectively ended autonomous civic bronze coinage across much of the region.
The leon type is well-documented across multiple major reference collections, suggesting reasonable survival, though Keramos itself never achieved the civic prominence of nearby Halikarnassos or Knidos.
