Beschrijving keerzijde Asclepius, the god of medicine, stands facing with head turned to the left, clad in a long himation draped over his left shoulder, his weight resting on a knotted serpent-entwined staff (the caduceus of Asclepius) held in his right hand. The figure occupies the central field, rendered in the typical provincial style of Asia Minor civic bronzes. The ethnic legend ΠΙΟΝΕΙΤΩΝ is disposed around the periphery, partially within a dotted border visible on the reverse rim. The reverse type reflects the civic pride of Pionia and the widespread veneration of Asclepius in the Greek East.

Aanvullende informatie

Pionia was a minor Mysian community whose civic coinage output was sparse enough that individual issues are rarely attributed with confidence. The ΠΙΟΝΕΙΤΩΝ ethnic on this piece confirms civic authority rather than a provincial mint acting on the city's behalf — a distinction that matters for smaller Asian communities during the Severan period, when several towns lost or suspended independent coining rights. The conventus of Adramyteum administered a stretch of the Mysian interior where Hellenistic civic identity persisted stubbornly into the Roman imperial period.
