Æ16 - Caligula ΑΙΖΑΝΙΤΩΝ ΕΠΙ ΠΡΑΞΙΜΕ

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.
