Adramyteum, a coastal city in Mysia with strong historical ties to Athenian colonization, struck bronze provincials under the authority of its local strategos — here one Publius Aelius Eutychos, whose name suggests a freedman ancestry within Roman civic administration, the Aelius gentilicum pointing to enfranchisement under Hadrian or his immediate successors. The city's conventus status placed it under the jurisdiction of the proconsul of Asia, but day-to-day civic coinage decisions rested with magistrates exactly like Eutychos.
The eighteen-year span of Severus's reign makes precise dating within this magistracy difficult without die-linkage studies.
