| Beschrijving keerzijde | The emperor, wearing a chlamys, depicted on horseback prancing to the right, his mount rearing with forelegs raised. The figure is rendered in the conventional provincial equestrian type, conveying imperial military authority. The Greek ethnic legend of the issuing city is distributed around the field, with traces of a ground line beneath the horse. The overall style is consistent with the Phrygian provincial workshop output of the mid-third century AD. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Acmonea was a Phrygian city that punched above its weight in provincial coinage output, particularly during the Severan and post-Severan periods. Maximinus Thrax, whose reign this issue dates to, never visited the eastern provinces — his entire time as emperor was consumed by military campaigns on the Rhine and Danube frontiers before his murder outside Aquileia in 238. The city's magistrates were essentially minting in the name of an emperor most locals had never seen and who showed no particular interest in them.
