Æ24 - Hadrian ΕΠΙ Λ ΤΥΛ ΠΕΡ ΓΡΙΜΕΝΟΘΥΡΕΩΝ

Grimenothyrae was a minor Lydian city whose civic coinage under Hadrian reflects the broader explosion of Greek imperial bronzes produced across Asia Minor during his reign — a period when Hadrian's extensive tours through the eastern provinces prompted numerous cities to mint locally as a form of civic self-promotion before the imperial administration. The magistrate name partially preserved in the obverse legend, likely a local strategos or grammateus, is the only surviving record we have of this individual's existence.
