| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Trebonianus Gallus facing right, portrayed from a three-quarter rear perspective, a convention characteristic of mid-third-century provincial bronze coinage. The radiate wreath and paludamentum are rendered with typical provincial die-cutting style, exhibiting bold if somewhat rough workmanship. The surrounding legend reads IMP C VIBI TREB GALLVS AVG, disposed clockwise around the periphery of the flan. The field shows natural green patina with minor surface porosity consistent with the age and bronze alloy. The irregular flan shape is characteristic of the local mint's production at Alexandria Troas. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alexandria Troas, a Roman colony founded by Antigonus and refounded under Lysimachus before Augustus formalized its colonial status, maintained an unusually long run of autonomous bronze coinage compared to most Asian Greek cities of the third century. Trebonianus Gallus came to power after the death of Decius at Abrittus in June 251 — the first emperor killed in battle by a foreign enemy — and his two-year reign produced a relatively narrow window for provincial issues. The IX#422A reference places this among the less-documented die pairings from the Troad's final active minting phase.
