| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Sabinia Tranquillina, diademed, facing right, her hair elaborately coiffed in the dynastic style of the Gordian period. The effigy is rendered in the provincial idiom typical of Pontic civic coinage, with the diadem clearly distinguishing her imperial status. The circular Greek legend ϹΑΒΕΙΝΙΑ ΤΡΑΝΚΥΛΛΕΙΝΑ runs around the periphery of the flan, identifying the empress by her full name. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Heraclea Pontica retained the right to strike bronze civic coinage under the Severans and their successors, one of relatively few Pontic cities that maintained this privilege into the mid-third century. By the reign of Gordian III, the city's autonomy was increasingly nominal — Roman administrative pressure had long eroded the independence that Heraclea had once defended with enough ferocity to resist even Lucullus during the Mithridatic Wars.
The reference VII.2#2127 places this within Waddington, Babelon, and Reinach's *Recueil général*, the standard corpus for Pontic civic bronzes.
