| Additional information |
Laertes was a minor Pamphylian city whose civic coinage under the joint reign of Valerian I and Gallienus falls into a window of acute imperial instability — the Persian wars, the capture of Valerian at Edessa in 260 AD, and the near-simultaneous fragmentation of the empire into the Gallic and Palmyrene breakaway zones. Provincial bronzes from the eastern cities effectively ceased after Valerian's capture, making issues attributable to the earlier part of this co-regency the more likely survivors of any extended run.
