Additional information

Erythrae was a modest Ionian city by the imperial period, but its civic coinage under Trajan reflects the administrative reach of the Smyrna conventus — the assize district through which Roman judicial and financial authority was channeled across the region. The magistrate name rendered as ΓΛΥΚΩΝΟϹ identifies the issuing official, a local Greek whose family likely held civic office across multiple generations, as was customary in Ionian municipal life. The ΕΡΥ ethnic abbreviation places this squarely within a small, coherent municipal series. Bronze issues at this weight from Erythrae are infrequently encountered.
