| Additional information |
RPC I 2624 belongs to a group of civic bronzes issued by Ephesus under the magistrate ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝΙΟΣ, whose name appears as the issuing authority — a remnant of the old Greek civic minting tradition that Augustus deliberately preserved in the eastern provinces to ease the transition from Ptolemaic and Seleucid administrative norms. Ephesus had been designated capital of the Roman province of Asia by the late Republic, and its mint was among the most active in the Aegean region during the Augustan period.
