Additional information

Tralles, a prosperous city in the Maeander valley, maintained its civic coinage well into the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus — a period defined by near-constant military crisis along the Danube and in the East. The city had long cultivated imperial favor, and joint-reign bronzes honoring both emperors simultaneously were a deliberate civic gesture rather than a minting requirement.

Valerian was captured by Shapur I at the Battle of Edessa in 260 AD, ending this issue's possible date range abruptly.
