Additional information

Acmonea was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Gordian III forms part of the dense output from the Apamea conventus — the Roman judicial district that administered much of inland Anatolia. The city's coins from this reign are documented but scarce, and the specific magistrate responsible for this issue is recorded in the series references, a detail that pins the striking to a precise administrative moment rather than a vague reign-span.

The reference VII.1#689.2 places this within Leschhorn and the broader corpus of Anatolian civic bronzes, a cataloguing project that has substantially revised earlier attributions for Acmonean issues.
