The dating formula ΕΤΟΥϹ ΡϘΕ places this issue in year 195 of the Amisene civic era, which the city maintained independently of the standard Pontic reckoning — a bureaucratic assertion of local identity that persisted well into the Roman imperial period. Amisus had held the status of a free city since at least the time of Caesar, and continued striking dated bronze on its own calendar accordingly.
163–164 AD falls early in Marcus Aurelius's sole reign, the Parthian War of Lucius Verus still unresolved in the east.
