Additional information

The date ΕΤΟΥΣ Ξ — year 60 of the Amisene civic era — places this issue in 28/29 AD, early in Tiberius's reign when Pontus had been absorbed into the province of Galatia-Pontus following the death of Pythodorис. Amisus retained its status as a free city under Roman rule, a privilege first granted by Pompey after the Mithridatic Wars, which explains the persistence of civic bronze coinage struck under local authority rather than imperial direction.
