| Additional information |
Maeonia was a minor inland city of Lydia whose civic coinage depended entirely on the goodwill of Roman provincial administration — the magistrate name preserved in the legend, Damas, represents one of the few surviving traces of local elite participation in the currency system of the Sardis conventus. Provincial bronzes of this conventus struck under Septimius Severus are thinly documented, and die studies remain incomplete, making confident attribution of individual magistrate issues to specific years within his reign largely impossible.
