| Aanvullende informatie |
Traianopolis in Lydia was a minor settlement that nonetheless maintained civic bronze coinage under the Severans, likely as a mechanism for asserting or preserving its municipal status. The archon name ΤΕΙΜΟΘΕΟϹ on this issue functions as a dated administrative marker — first archonship magistracies in provincial Asia were competitive appointments, and their appearance on coinage was as much about local politics as it was about currency.
Caracalla's reign saw a marked increase in provincial bronze output across the Sardis conventus, partly driven by his own aggressive touring of the eastern provinces between 214 and 217.
