Beschrijving voorzijde Bare-headed, draped bust of Caracalla facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the front, with short curly hair rendered in typical Severan style. The effigy is set within a dotted border, with the Greek imperial titulature legend distributed around the periphery of the field. The drapery over the left shoulder is rendered in folded folds characteristic of provincial bronze coinage of the Bithynian region.

Aanvullende informatie

Iuliopolis was a minor Bithynian city with an outsized political history — founded or refounded under Augustus and named in honor of Julius Caesar, it punched above its weight in civic coinage precisely because local elites used bronze issues to advertise their loyalty to successive emperors. Under Septimius Severus, that loyalty had real stakes: his civil wars against Pescennius Niger and Clodius Albinus left provincial cities choosing sides, and Bithynia, broadly in Niger's camp early on, had reason to demonstrate renewed devotion once Severus prevailed in 194 AD.
