Beschrijving voorzijde Bare laureate head of Emperor Antoninus Pius facing right, rendered in the typical provincial style of Bithynian civic coinage. The portrait features the emperor's characteristic mature facial features with a short beard. A circular legend runs around the periphery of the flan. The die work is characteristic of a provincial mint, with somewhat rough but expressive modelling of the imperial effigy.

Aanvullende informatie

Apamea in Bithynia was a Roman colony — Colonia Iulia Concordia Apamea — whose civic bronze issues under Antoninus Pius were produced by local authority under the sanction of the decuriones, reflected in the D D (decreto decurionum) formula. The colonists used Latin legends on civic bronzes long after Greek had become standard across most of the eastern provincial coinage, a deliberate assertion of colonial Roman identity in a predominantly Hellenized region.

The reign of Antoninus Pius saw unusually stable conditions for civic minting throughout Bithynia-Pontus — no military disruptions, no currency crises.
