Beschrijving voorzijde Laureate bare-shouldered bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, with short to medium-length beard rendered in the naturalistic style typical of his early reign portraits. The imperial effigy occupies the central field, with the circumferential Greek legend reading ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙ Μ ΑΥΡΗ ΚΟΜΜΟΔΟϹ distributed around the periphery. The die-cutting reflects the provincial workshop tradition of the Lydian conventus, with relatively bold relief. Surface patination is heavy, partially obscuring fine details of the laureate wreath.

Aanvullende informatie

Hierocaesarea was a small Lydian city whose civic identity leaned heavily on its famous temple of Persian Artemis — one of the few active Persian religious cults that survived into Roman imperial times under explicit Roman protection. Issues from this mint are sparse across the reign of Commodus, and the conventus of Pergamum administered coin authorization for dozens of such minor cities, meaning production here was occasional and tied to specific local needs rather than continuous output.
