| Beschrijving voorzijde | Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of the Emperor Valerian I facing right, depicted in three-quarter view from the front. The radiate crown is rendered with pronounced spikes, and the paludamentum is visible over the cuirass. The encircling Greek legend names the emperor in the nominative case. A beaded border frames the entire design, consistent with provincial bronze coinage of the mid-third century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Iuliopolis occupied an awkward position in Bithynia — a small city of modest means that nonetheless maintained the right to strike provincial bronze under the joint reign of Valerian I and his son Gallienus. The co-emperorship itself was a product of necessity: when Valerian elevated Gallienus in 253, the empire was simultaneously absorbing pressure from Shapur I in the east and the Rhine frontier in the west, and a divided command was the only practical answer.
Valerian's capture by Shapur at Edessa in 260 ended the joint reign abruptly, terminating provincial emissions struck in both names.
