| Beschrijving keerzijde | A Capricorn, the zodiacal emblem closely associated with the Julio-Claudian and later imperial dynastic tradition, strides to the right, cradling a globe between its fore-hooves. A cornucopia rises above the creature's back, symbolising abundance and imperial prosperity. The colonial abbreviation legend appears in the lower field and exergue, identifying the issuing city of Parium. The type alludes to the colony's Augustan foundation and its enduring loyalty to Roman imperial iconography. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Parium, a Roman colony on the Propontis with roots stretching back to a Greek foundation, retained its colonial status and attendant minting privileges well into the imperial period. The city's coins consistently advertise its standing as a colonia — the abbreviation C G I H PAR expanding to Colonia Gemella Iulia Hadriana Pariana, a title accumulated across successive imperial recognitions including a Hadrianic grant that added the fourth element to the city's official name.
The reign of Marcus Aurelius coincided with severe pressure on provincial resources due to the Antonine Plague and sustained warfare on the Danubian frontier.
