Beschrijving voorzijde Bare head of the emperor Augustus facing right, rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Phrygian civic coinage of the Augustan period. The portrait displays the characteristic short, lightly striated hair of Augustus, with the effigy occupying the majority of the flan. The Greek legend ΣΕΒΑΣΤΟΣ (Sebastos, the Greek equivalent of Augustus) runs along the right field. The coin exhibits a dark patina with areas of green encrustation consistent with its bronze composition and age.

Aanvullende informatie

Hierapolis in Phrygia sat at the junction of several major trade routes and was administratively grouped under the Conventus of Cibyra during the early imperial period — a judicial district whose assizes drew litigants and merchants from across southwestern Anatolia. The magistrate name preserved in the legend, Apollonios son of Matron, follows the standard civic coinage practice of naming the responsible magistrate, likely a grammateus or strategus, whose family connections within the city elite would have been immediately legible to any local handling the coin.
