| Additional information |
Assus was a small coastal polis in the Troad whose civic coinage under the Severan emperors was modest in volume and rarely systematic. Issues naming Elagabalus are among the scarcest from this mint, likely reflecting the city's limited engagement with imperial cult formalities during his four-year reign rather than any disruption in production.
