Additional information

Orthosia was a minor Carian coastal settlement whose civic coinage output was modest even by the standards of small provincial centers. Issues attributable to Severus's reign are scarce in the record, likely reflecting limited local mint activity rather than heavy circulation loss. The conventus of Alabanda grouped several such towns for judicial and administrative purposes under Roman provincial governance, but minting decisions remained with the individual community.

V.2#59422 is a sparsely documented type.
