Beschrijving keerzijde An agonistic crown adorned with two upright palm branches, centrally placed within the field, symbolising the sacred games held at Thyatira. The crown is depicted in a stylised manner typical of civic bronze coinage from Asia Minor. The ethnic legend ΘΥΑΤΕΙΡΗΝΩΝ encircles the central motif, identifying the issuing city. The overall composition is set within a plain circular border on a worn and patinated bronze flan.

Aanvullende informatie

Thyatira, a Lydian city best known from its textile and dyeing guilds, was one of the more prolific issuers of civic bronze under the Severan dynasty — the volume of types attributed to Thyatira from this period is substantial enough that die studies remain incomplete. This piece falls within Alexander's thirteen-year reign, the longest of any Severan emperor after his dynasty's founder, ended when his own troops mutinied on the Rhine frontier in 235 AD and installed Maximinus Thrax, triggering the crisis of the third century.
