| Additional information |
Aezani, situated in Phrygia, was a city of genuine architectural ambition — its Temple of Zeus, partially standing today, was under active development during the Severan period and required the kind of imperial goodwill that civic bronze coinage helped publicly demonstrate. The magistrate name preserved in the legend, Kompsos Hermo, anchors this piece to a specific local administrator otherwise unattested in literary sources, making coins the sole surviving record of his tenure.
