| Additional information |
Miletopolis was a minor Mysian city whose civic coinage under Gordian III survives in very small numbers, almost certainly reflecting limited local production rather than attrition. The city held no particular strategic or commercial significance within the Cyzicus conventus, and its bronze issues appear to have served strictly local exchange needs with little wider distribution.
RPC VII.1 #90 remains sparsely documented in trade records.
