Additional information

Antandrus was a minor coastal city in the Troad whose civic coinage output under the Antonines was sparse enough that individual issues are rarely duplicated in major collections. The city had been largely overshadowed by Adramyteum — the conventus seat — for administrative purposes, which may explain why its autonomous bronze issues cluster so tightly within specific reigns rather than running continuously.

The conventus of Adramyteum grouped together several such second-tier Troas cities whose coinage exists in numbers too small to fully reconstruct die sequences.
