| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Philip I facing right, portrayed seen from the rear, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The imperial effigy is rendered in the typical provincial style of the Ephesian mint, with modelled facial features and layered armour detail. The encircling Greek legend reads ΑΥΤ ΙΟΥ ΦΙΛΙΠΠΟϹ, identifying the emperor by his titles and name. A dotted border frames the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ephesus held the title neokoros — warden of the imperial cult — multiple times over, a distinction cities competed for ferociously through embassies to Rome and substantial financial outlay. Philip I, an Arab from the Hauran region of Syria who came to power after engineering the death of Gordian III on campaign in Mesopotamia, was the kind of emperor provincial mints needed to court quickly. Small civic bronzes like this one, circulating locally in the Cayster valley, functioned as much as political currency as commercial.
