Additional information

Hadrian visited Corinth during his extensive Greek tour of 124–125 AD, and the city — refounded as a Roman colony by Julius Caesar in 44 BC after lying abandoned for a century — responded with a sustained burst of civic coinage that outlasted the visit itself. The COL COR legend reflects that colonial identity, nearly two centuries on from Caesar's refoundation.
