Æ22 - Gallienus (sole reign) (ΗΡΑΚΛΗΑϹ ΝΕΩΚΟΡΩΝ)

Heraclea Pontica's civic bronze issues under Gallienus's sole reign — after the capture of Valerian by Shapur I in 260 AD effectively ended the co-regency — reflect the city's continued insistence on its neokoros status at a moment when the empire was fracturing badly. The title ΝΕΩΚΟΡΩΝ, claiming temple wardenship, was a civic honor cities competed fiercely to obtain and retain from the imperial cult administration.
