| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate bust of Emperor Septimius Severus facing right, rendered in the provincial style characteristic of Bithynian civic coinage. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic full beard and strong facial features. A Greek imperial titulature legend surrounds the portrait along the periphery of the field. The flan is heavily patinated with green encrustation, largely obscuring fine detail of the die work. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Iuliopolis occupied an awkward political position in Bithynia — a small inland city with limited economic reach, yet one that minted bronze with surprising regularity under the Severans. The city owed its name to Julius Caesar, refounded or renamed in his honor during the late Republican period, which made Severan-era civic coinage there a layered act of dynastic flattery reaching back two centuries.
Provincial bronzes from Iuliopolis are genuinely scarce in the market; the city's output was never large, and most pieces served purely local exchange before disappearing into hoards or soil.
