| Additional information |
Aphrodisias struck coins under its own civic authority through the imperial period, a privilege tied directly to the city's status as a free city granted by Augustus — a favor the Aphrodisians leveraged aggressively in their epigraphy and coinage alike. By the sole reign of Gallienus, most cities in the Carian conventus had already wound down civic bronze production, making continued issues from Aphrodisias in this period relatively uncommon against the broader provincial shutdown occurring across Asia Minor as central imperial coinage expanded.
