| Additional information |
Hadriani ad Olympum was a Mysian city that owed its very existence to the emperor whose name it bore — founded or refounded under Hadrian, it issued civic bronze precisely to assert its new municipal identity. The Conventus of Adramyteum grouped several such communities for administrative and judicial purposes, and local bronze coinage functioned as much as a civic statement as a practical medium of exchange.
The reference III#1602 places this within Waddington, Babelon, and Reinach's *Recueil général des monnaies grecques d'Asie Mineure* — the foundational corpus for Asia Minor provincials, though coverage of smaller Mysian mints remains incomplete relative to the major centers.
