| Aanvullende informatie |
Magnesia ad Maeandrum's civic bronze issues under Gordian III were administered through a local magistrate — the ΕΠΙ ΓΡ formula preceding ΔΗΜΟΝΕΙΚΟΥ identifies the grammateus, the city secretary responsible for overseeing the issue. This accountability structure, where a named official staked his civic reputation on the coinage, was characteristic of the Greek cities of the Maeander valley during the Severan and post-Severan periods.
The Conventus of Miletus grouped several proud Ionian cities for Roman judicial and administrative purposes, Magnesia among them — a city that never quite forgot it had once been a free Greek polis with Seleucid patronage.
