Æ35 - Septimius Severus ΕΠΙ Τ ΦΛ ϹΤΛ ΑΚΚΙΟΥ ΚΛ ΑΡΧ Α, ΙΟΥΛΙΕΩΝ ΓΟΡΔΗΝΩΝ

Iulia Gordus was a small Lydian city whose civic coinage under Septimius Severus depended almost entirely on the patronage of local magistrates — the ΕΠΙ formula naming the presiding archon was not ceremonial but functionally tied to funding. The magistrate named in this inscription, a Flavius Stalakios or similar reading, would have personally underwritten part of the striking cost, a common arrangement in the Sardis conventus where Roman administrative oversight was relatively light.

The city's output under Severus is sparsely documented, and named-magistrate die pairings from Iulia Gordus remain difficult to sequence chronologically.
