| Additional information |
Daldis was a minor Lydian city whose civic coinage under Septimius Severus survives in very small numbers — the city's output was modest even by the standards of the Sardis conventus, which grouped it administratively with far larger neighbors. The reign dates bracket a period of intense provincial loyalty-signaling following Severus's victory in the civil wars against Pescennius Niger, whose support base had run through Asia Minor; cities like Daldis issued bronze largely to demonstrate allegiance to the new dynasty.
