| Beschrijving keerzijde | Eagle standing facing on a bone or club, with wings spread and head turned to the left, rendered in the characteristic style of Lydian provincial coinage under Commodus. The bird's feathers are finely detailed, and the spread wings fill much of the flan. The ethnic legend ΘΥΑΤΕΙΡΗΝΩΝ, denoting 'of the Thyatirans', is distributed around the reverse field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Thyatira occupied an awkward position in the Roman provincial system — a Lydian city with modest prestige, sandwiched between the more powerful conventus centers, yet productive enough to strike a sustained local bronze coinage through the latter half of Commodus's reign. The city's economy ran heavily on textile dyeing, a trade prominent enough to appear in Acts 16 through the merchant Lydia of Thyatira.
Provincial bronzes of Commodus from Asia Minor become markedly scarcer toward 190–192, as his increasingly erratic rule disrupted civic administration across the eastern provinces.
