| Additional information |
Issued under the duoviri of Roman Corinth during the reign of Tiberius, this coin names L. Arrius Peregrinus as one of the presiding magistrates — a local elite whose office carried both administrative and ceremonial weight in a colony that Julius Caesar had refounded in 44 BC, nearly a century before this piece was struck. The colonial title Gent(is) Iuli(ae) — invoking descent from the Julian gens — was a deliberate assertion of the colony's Caesarian origins at a moment when Tiberius himself was growing increasingly remote from public life, having withdrawn to Capri in 27 AD.
