| Aanvullende informatie |
Thyatira, a Lydian city better known to numismatists for its prolific civic bronze output than for any single remarkable issue, was economically tied to the textile and dyeing trades — the same guilds mentioned in Acts 16 in connection with Lydia of Thyatira. Civic coinage under Commodus from this mint clusters tightly in the mid-180s, likely reflecting a period of municipal administrative activity rather than any imperial directive.
Commodus's eastern provincial bronzes are frequently underrepresented in major collections relative to his official Rome mint output.
