| Additional information |
Parium, a Roman colony on the southern Marmara coast, retained its colonial identity with unusual tenacity well into the Antonine period, continuing to strike bronze issues with Latin legends long after most neighboring Mysian cities had standardized on Greek. This piece was struck in the final year of Marcus Aurelius's reign, almost certainly before news of his death at Vindobona in March 180 reached the province.
