| Additional information |
Aezani, situated in Phrygia, was one of the more prosperous cities of its conventus and left an unusually well-documented civic coinage. This piece names the magistrate Claudius Quartinus in the genitive — a standard honorific formula that effectively credits him as the issuing authority, suggesting he funded or sponsored the striking as a public act of euergetism. Quartinus himself is otherwise poorly attested in the epigraphic record, making the coinage one of the few surviving traces of his tenure.
