| Additional information |
Miletus by the Severan period was a city living on its classical reputation — the great grid-planned metropolis of Ionia had long ceded commercial dominance to Ephesus and Smyrna, yet continued producing civic bronze under locally appointed magistrates whose names appear on the coinage. Menandros, named here as the presiding authority, is otherwise unattested in the epigraphic record, making this coin one of the few surviving traces of his tenure.
