Additional information

Bria was a minor Pisidian city whose civic bronze output was modest even by regional standards — the settlement rarely appears in ancient sources, and its coinage series is thin enough that attribution debates between Septimius Severus and Caracalla remain unresolved for several types, this piece among them. The overlap in their co-reign from 198 AD narrows the window somewhat, but the absence of distinguishing titulature on small provincial bronzes makes certainty elusive. BMC Greek records only a single example.
