| Beschrijving keerzijde | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing with head turned to the left. He rests his left hand upon a serpent-entwined staff (the caduceus of Asclepius), the serpent coiling prominently around the rod. The figure is rendered in a frontal, static pose standard to provincial divine imagery of the Severan era. The ethnic legend ΙΟΥΛΙΟΠΟΛΕΙΤΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing city of Iuliopolis in Bithynia. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Iuliopolis was among the smallest and least significant cities in Bithynia, originally a Galatian settlement renamed after Julius Caesar — or possibly Augustus — in a bid for Roman favor that was largely ignored by history. Its civic bronze coinage under Septimius Severus represents one of the thinner series from the province, with very few die pairings documented and surviving specimens genuinely scarce. The city never achieved the civic prominence of Nicaea or Nicomedia, and its output reflects that marginal status.
