The Koinon of Bithynia was the provincial assembly responsible for the imperial cult across a region Rome had inherited by bequest in 74 BC, when Nicomedes IV died without an heir and left his kingdom directly to the Roman people. These koinon bronzes circulated within the cult framework — issued not by a city mint but by the collective provincial body, which gave them an unusual inter-city legitimacy. Hadrian was particularly attentive to the eastern provinces, making two extensive tours through Bithynia-Pontus during his reign, and the volume of koinon coinage under him reflects that engagement directly.
