| Aanvullende informatie |
Cyzicus, situated on the Propontis in Mysia, was one of the wealthiest and most productive civic minting centers in the Roman East, with a bronze coinage tradition stretching back centuries before Roman administrative reorganization folded it into the Conventus of Cyzicus. This piece falls within the narrow co-regency window after Commodus was elevated to Augustus in 177 AD, a political formality designed to secure dynastic succession while Marcus was still alive — the Cyzicene mint responded promptly to such imperial events with fresh civic bronze issues.
