| Aanvullende informatie |
The Koinon of Thessaly — the federal league of Thessalian cities — retained the right to strike bronze coinage under Roman imperial oversight, issuing pieces that paired the reigning emperor with league authority as a deliberate assertion of provincial continuity. The Γ (gamma) in the reverse legend denotes a magistrate's initial, a standard administrative convention for Thessalian league bronzes that helps sequence issues across the joint reign of Valerian and his son Gallienus, which lasted only until Valerian's catastrophic capture by Shapur I at the Battle of Edessa in 260.
