Æ32 - Severus Alexander ΠΕΛΤΗΝωΝ ΜΑΚ ΑΡ ΦΑΥϹΤΕΙΝΟΥ

Peltae was a minor Phrygian city whose coins almost exclusively survive in low grades due to small local production runs and continuous circulation within a limited regional economy. The magistrate name ΦΑΥϹΤΕΙΝΟΥ — Faustinus — appearing in the legend places this issue within the civic coinage system of the Conventus of Apamea, where local officials effectively sponsored issues as a form of civic euergetism, bearing personal association with the coinage rather than simply administering its production. The Macedonian ethnic designation ΜΑΚ in the city's title reflects Peltae's claim to Macedonian colonial heritage, a distinction actively promoted on coinage throughout the Severan period.
