| 背面描述 | Elaborate civic scene depicting a bridge spanning a river, upon which a personified river god reclines to the left on a kline, holding a reed in one hand and a cornucopia in the other, symbolising the local waterway's fertility and abundance. To the left of the bridge stands a triple-arched gateway, likely representing the city gate of Antiocheia ad Maeandrum. To the right, a horseman rides rightward, possibly representing the emperor or a local deity. The ethnic legend ΑΝΤΙΟΧΕΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority. |

Antioch ad Maeandrum was a small Carian city whose civic coinage under the joint reign of Valerian I and Gallienus represents one of the last gasps of Greek imperial bronze production in the region. The Conventus of Alabanda, the Roman judicial district in which the city sat, grouped together dozens of minor mints whose output was largely local in circulation — these bronzes rarely traveled far from the markets and temples they were struck to serve.
Valerian's capture by Shapur I at the Battle of Edessa in 260 AD brought the joint reign to an abrupt end and terminated civic bronze issues of this type across Asia Minor almost simultaneously.
