| Additional information |
Amorium, a Phrygian city of middling regional importance, struck bronze coinage under local magistrates whose names appear in the legends — here, a certain Gaios holding the archonship. These civic bronzes were purely local in circulation, filling the gap left by the near-absence of small imperial bronze in the eastern provinces during the Severan period. The magistrate's name itself is the coin's primary historical anchor; Gaios is otherwise unattested.
