| Aanvullende informatie |
This coin was struck under the joint authority of Smyrna and Thyateira to commemorate a homonoia — a formal alliance of civic concord between the two cities. Such agreements were politically calculated affairs, often brokered to resolve commercial disputes or competition over imperial favor, and Gordian III's reign saw a notable surge in homonoia issues across the Lydian and Ionian conventions. The magistrate named in the legend, Pollianus, held the role of grammateus, the civic secretary responsible for overseeing just such diplomatic arrangements.
