Æ27 - Commodus C L I COR

正面描述	Laureate, draped bust of Emperor Commodus facing right, the imperial effigy rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Corinthian colonial coinage. The laureate wreath is clearly depicted encircling the head, with drapery visible at the shoulder. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait in the field, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. The flan is slightly irregular, as is typical of provincial bronze issues of the period.

附加信息	Corinth's colonial status under Rome gave its civic coinage an unusual character — the city was refounded as a Roman colony by Julius Caesar in 44 BC, nearly a century after its destruction by Mummius, and its bronzes consistently reflect Latin titulature rather than the Greek conventions used by most Achaean civic mints. The abbreviation C L I COR — Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis — is that colonial identity compressed into four letters. Commodus ruled from 177 AD but began issuing coins in his own name following Marcus Aurelius's death in 180. Provincial bronzes attributable to the mid-180s through 190 fall within his increasingly erratic sole reign, before his assassination on the last day of 192.
