| Beschrijving keerzijde | Draped bust of Artemis facing right, with a quiver and bow visible at her shoulder, rendered in a provincial Hellenistic style consistent with civic bronzes of the Conventus of Sardis. The goddess is depicted with her characteristic hunting attributes. The encircling Greek legend around the field reads ΑΙΖΑΝΙΤΩΝ ΕΠΙ ΠΡΑΞΙΜΕ, identifying the issuing city and the local magistrate Praximes under whose authority the coin was struck. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Aezani, situated in Phrygia, was assigned to the conventus of Sardis for administrative and juridical purposes under Roman provincial organization. The city's coins under Caligula name the magistrate Praximes — one of the local officials, likely a grammateus or strategus, whose brief window of authority coincided precisely with a reign that lasted less than four years before Caligula's assassination in January 41 AD.
The pairing of an emperor who never visited the eastern provinces with a Phrygian magistrate otherwise unattested in literary sources is exactly the kind of detail that makes provincial bronze coinage the primary evidence for local civic administration.
