| Aanvullende informatie |
Apollonia ad Rhyndacum issued this bronze in the first or second year of Marcus Aurelius's sole reign, following the death of Antoninus Pius in March 161. The city sat along the Rhyndacus River in Mysia and held sufficient civic standing within the Cyzicus conventus to produce its own bronze coinage — a privilege extended to select communities under Roman provincial administration rather than granted automatically.
The full ethnic ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝΙΑΤΩΝ ΠΡΟϹ ΡΥΝΔΑΚΩ distinguishes it from the Illyrian Apollonia, an important disambiguation in the cataloging tradition going back to Mionnet.
