| Beschrijving keerzijde | The ethnic legend ΜΥΛΑϹΕΩΝ, identifying the issuing city of Mylasa in Caria, is inscribed within a wreath, a common reverse type on the smaller civic bronze denominations of Asia Minor during the Severan and post-Severan periods. The wreath, likely of laurel, encircles the civic inscription centrally placed in the field. The reverse field is heavily worn, with the wreath details largely obscured by corrosion and encrustation. This type reflects the autonomous civic coinage struck under Roman provincial oversight. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mylasa was an ancient Carian city whose civic coinage under Maximinus Thrax reflects the brief, turbulent three years between his acclamation by the Rhine legions and his murder outside Aquileia. The city had long-standing ties to Roman administration through the Alabanda conventus, one of the judicial districts organizing Roman Asia Minor, and continued issuing bronze civic types throughout the crisis-ridden third century largely independent of imperial mint output.
Maximinus never visited the eastern provinces. His coinage there is entirely the product of local civic initiative.
