The vessel is shown under oar, conveying the maritime prominence of Ephesus as a leading port city of the province of Asia.

Ephesus held the title *prōtē tēs Asias* — "first of Asia" — not merely as honorific vanity but as a fiercely contested civic status that determined religious precedence, festival rankings, and the right to host imperial cult ceremonies. Rival cities, particularly Smyrna and Pergamon, disputed it continuously, and the claim was periodically adjudicated by Rome. That Ephesus struck coins advertising this primacy under Septimius Severus reflects active lobbying during a reign when the emperor was consolidating eastern support after defeating Pescennius Niger, whose base had been precisely these Aegean and Asian cities.
