| Beschrijving voorzijde | Youthful laureate bust of Commodus, draped in cuirass and paludamentum, facing right and seen from the rear. The portrait presents the prince as Caesar and co-emperor, with military attire emphasizing his imperial status. The legend encircles the bust in the field. The flan is irregular, consistent with provincial hammered bronze coinage of the Antonine period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alexandria Troas was a Roman colony — Colonia Augusta Troadensis — planted on the Aegean coast of Mysia in the early imperial period, and its colonial status gave it the rare right to strike bronze coinage in its own name. The years 177–179 correspond to Marcus Aurelius ruling jointly with his son Commodus, elevated to co-emperor in 177, which is the likely trigger for renewed civic bronze output across many eastern mints eager to mark the dynastic moment.
The Conventus of Adramyteum was the judicial district within which Alexandria Troas sat, a classification that mattered administratively but had little bearing on day-to-day civic pride.
