| Additional information |
Magnesia on the Maeander — not to be confused with Magnesia ad Sipylum, a distinction ancient sources themselves occasionally blur — continued striking civic bronze well into the third century despite the broader collapse of autonomous Greek city coinage accelerating under Gallienus. Issues under Trebonianus Gallus represent some of the final emissions from this mint, a city whose identity had long been bound up with the sanctuary of Artemis Leucophryene and the Leukophryena festival games, the latter referenced in the magistrate legend.
