Aanvullende informatie

Parium, a Roman colony on the Propontis, held the right to strike bronze coinage under its own authority — a privilege jealously maintained and reflected in the prominent colonial titulature abbreviated on these issues. The years 191–192 coincide with the final, increasingly erratic phase of Commodus's reign, during which he renamed Rome "Colonia Commodiana" and declared himself the reincarnation of Hercules. Colonial mints continued striking his portrait regardless, their civic issues insulated from the chaos unfolding in the capital. He was strangled on the last day of 192.
