Ancyra in Lydia — not to be confused with the more famous Ancyra in Galatia — issued this bronze under a local magistrate whose name, Artemidoros, appears in the abbreviated epigram on the reverse. The convention of naming coins after the sitting strategus or grammateus was standard practice across the Sardis conventus, making magistrate sequence the primary tool for dating issues within Nero's reign. The Sardis conventus grouped numerous Lydian cities under Roman administrative oversight, with coin-issuing rights effectively delegated to local elites.
