| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare laureate head of Emperor Commodus facing right, rendered in the provincial style typical of Carian civic coinage. The portrait displays a youthful, slightly idealized effigy with the laurel wreath clearly delineated around the cranium. The Greek legend Μ ΑΥ ΚΟΜΜΟΔΟϹ runs around the periphery of the flan, identifying the emperor by his abbreviated imperial titulature. The flan is irregular, characteristic of hammered provincial bronze issues of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Antioch on the Maeander was a minor Carian city whose civic coinage under the Antonines was modest in both volume and ambition. The years 182–184 correspond to the period immediately following Commodus's assumption of sole rule after Marcus Aurelius died in March 180 — a transition the eastern provincial cities marked with a fresh wave of portrait issues, partly as a bureaucratic formality of loyalty, partly because new reigns meant new authorization cycles for local bronze production.
The Conventus of Alabanda grouped several small Carian cities for administrative and judicial purposes, and coin output from these centers tends toward low survival rates.
