Aanvullende informatie

Hypaepa was a small Lydian town in the Cayster River valley whose civic coinage under Septimius Severus reflects the intense municipal competition for imperial favor that characterized the early Severan period. Cities throughout the Ephesian conventus rushed to issue bronze with the new emperor's name following the civil wars of 193 AD — the Year of the Five Emperors — partly to signal loyalty and partly to secure the commercial advantages that came with recognized imperial endorsement. The magistrate name rendered ΙΕΡΑΚΟϹ in the legend identifies a local strategos or grammateus otherwise unattested in the epigraphic record.
