| Aanvullende informatie |
Dionysopolis in Phrygia was a minor civic mint that struck bronze for local circulation under the broader framework of Roman provincial coinage — issues authorized by the city rather than Rome, produced to satisfy small-denomination exchange that imperial mints didn't bother supplying. The legend ΤΟ Ο is a boule reference, indicating this issue was sanctioned by the city council, a bureaucratic stamp of civic authority common to Phrygian bronzes of this period.
Elagabalus was assassinated in March 222, making the 221–222 window for this type extremely narrow. His reign's provincial issues are often underrepresented in collections relative to his predecessor and successor.
