| Beschrijving keerzijde | The emperor is depicted on horseback, moving to the right, with his right arm raised in a gesture of salute or address, a composition common to imperial equestrian types on Roman provincial bronzes. The horse is shown in a dignified walking pose, with careful attention to anatomical detail typical of Bithynian civic minting. The Greek ethnic legend ΤΙΑΝΩΝ appears in the lower field or exergue, identifying the issuing city of Tium. The overall style reflects the provincial workshops of Bithynia under the Severan dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tium was a minor coastal polis on the Black Sea shore of Bithynia, and its civic bronze issues under Septimius Severus reflect the modest but persistent autonomy that provincial cities exercised over local coinage during the Severan period. The city's name — rendered in the ethnic form ΤΙΑΝΩΝ on its coins — distinguishes it from the better-documented Bithynian mints at Nicaea and Nicomedia, which have received far greater scholarly attention, leaving Tium's output relatively understudied.
The reference V.2#71929 places this within the Waddington-Babelon-Reinach corpus, the foundational but now dated catalogue for Pontic and Bithynian civic bronzes.
