Antandrus sat at the foot of Mount Ida in the Troad, a city better known in antiquity for its shipbuilding timber than for numismatic output. Its coins are rare at any period. The attribution to the conventus of Adramyteum places it within the Roman administrative reorganization of Asia, where assizes grouped smaller communities under regional jurisdictional centers for legal and fiscal purposes.
Issues under Titus from this mint are sparsely documented; II#906 represents one of very few catalogued bronze types for his reign from Antandrus specifically.
