Æ30 - Domitian ΔΗΜΟΣ ΑΙΖΑΝΕΙΤΩΝ ΔΗΜΟΣ ΚΑΔΟΗΝΩΝ

Aezanis, situated in Phrygia, was home to one of the best-preserved temples of Zeus in all of Anatolia, and the city's civic pride was well-documented in its bronze coinage. This piece is a joint issue — a homonoia type struck between Aezanis and Kadoi, two neighboring Phrygian communities whose alliance coins were a diplomatic gesture rather than a commercial necessity. Such inter-city issues under the Flavians are relatively uncommon in the Sardis conventus and tend to survive in small numbers, as they circulated within a narrow regional zone rather than across broader trade networks.
