Additional information

Tabala was a minor Lydian city whose civic coinage output was sparse enough that most references list only a handful of types for the entire imperial period. Issues attributed to this mint under Septimius Severus are particularly thin on the ground, and the city's subordination to the conventus at Sardis meant its coinage was subject to oversight from one of the busiest administrative centers in Roman Asia Minor — a relationship that likely constrained both volume and frequency of striking.
