| Aanvullende informatie |
Apamea in Bithynia was a Pontic colony with a long habit of flattering new emperors through civic bronze issues, and Maximinus Thrax — who seized power in 235 after the assassination of Severus Alexander — was the kind of ruler whose favor provincial mints were especially anxious to cultivate. He never visited the eastern provinces and had no particular connection to Bithynia; the coinage is essentially a loyalty signal from a city hedging its bets under a notoriously brutal military emperor.
His reign ended with his murder outside Aquileia in 238, the year of the six emperors.
