Aanvullende informatie

Corinth's provincial bronze coinage under Marcus Aurelius falls within a period when the emperor was largely absent from Rome — the 170s saw him campaigning almost continuously on the Danubian frontier against the Marcomanni and Quadi. Provincial mints like Corinth operated with considerable autonomy during these years, and the colony's magistrates exercised real discretion over local issue timing and volume. The reference to "C L I COR" identifies this as a product of Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis, the Roman colonial designation established by Julius Caesar in 44 BC.
