| Additional information |
Odessos, the Black Sea port city on the western Pontic coast, maintained its own civic bronze coinage throughout much of the third century under the broad authority of the provincial administration of Moesia Inferior. The Ε appearing in the reverse inscription denotes a magistrate's mark — almost certainly a penteteric official associated with the city's festival coinage cycle — rather than a sequential issue number, though the precise identification of this magistrate remains unresolved in the literature.
