| Aanvullende informatie |
Amastris was a coastal city on the Black Sea founded by the Macedonian noblewoman Amastris — niece of Darius III and briefly wife of Lysimachus — whose name the city carried through every subsequent century of occupation. By the Antonine period it had become a prosperous regional hub, and its civic bronze issues reflect a municipality confident enough in its status to circulate local coinage under imperial authority without needing Rome's direct hand in the design. The city's mint output under Antoninus Pius is modest by volume, making individual survivors worth attention.
