Æ28 - Antoninus Pius ΕΠΙ ΜΗΝΟΦΑΝΤΟΥ ΙΕΡΕΩϹ ΤΑΒΑΛΕΩΝ

Tabala was a minor Lydian city whose civic coinage under Antoninus Pius is notable largely for its magistrate-named issues — this piece names Menophantos as the presiding priest, a title that doubled as civic administrative authority in many small Anatolian centers. The city held sufficiently low status that it rarely appears in literary sources, making its coin record one of the few surviving indices of its institutional life.
