The colonial abbreviation legend appears in the field.

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corinth's bronze coinage under Marcus Aurelius was produced by a municipally administered mint operating under the Roman colony's charter — Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis, refounded by Julius Caesar in 44 BC on the site the Romans had razed in 146 BC. The city's colonial status granted it the right to strike bronze for local circulation, a privilege not extended to every Greek city under Roman administration. This piece dates to the early co-reign of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus, before plague and the Parthian wars began straining provincial economies in the late 160s.
