| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Trebonianus Gallus facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the rear, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The imperial effigy displays characteristic mid-third-century provincial portraiture with pronounced facial features. The encircling Latin legend runs along the upper and lower periphery of the flan. The flan is irregular in shape, as is typical of provincial bronze coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alexandria Troas held the status of a Roman colony — Colonia Augusta Troadensis — a distinction granted under Augustus and jealously maintained through imperial coinage long after most provincial mints had ceased operation. The city's bronze issues continued well into the third century crisis, making it one of the last active provincial mints in the region. Trebonianus Gallus came to power following the catastrophic Battle of Abritus in 251, where his predecessor Decius was killed fighting the Goths — the first Roman emperor to die in battle against a foreign enemy.
