| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gallienus facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the rear, a presentation typical of provincial bronze coinage of the mid-third century AD. The imperial effigy displays the characteristic radiate or laurel wreath, with visible drapery folds over the shoulder and cuirass detailing. The surrounding field carries the Greek imperial titulature legend. The die-work reflects the provincial workshop style of the Carian conventus, with bold if somewhat coarsely rendered portraiture. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Antioch on the Maeander was a small Carian city that punched above its weight in civic coinage during the third century, issuing bronze throughout the chaos of the Crisis of the Third Empire — a period when Gallienus was simultaneously fighting usurpers on the Rhine, the Danube, and in the east following his father Valerian's capture by Shapur I in 260 AD. Provincial civic bronze of this type filled a genuine gap: central imperial mints were overwhelmed with silver and billon, leaving local populations dependent on city issues for everyday exchange.
