Æ37 - Elagabalus ΕΠΙ Γ Μ ΑΥΡ ΥΛΛΟΥ ΕΠΙΚΡΑΤΟΥϹ ΜΑΓΝΗΤΩΝ

Magnesia ad Maeandrum struck civic bronze under the magistrate Aurelius Hyllos Epikrates, whose name dominates the reverse legend — a reminder that local magistrates in Asia Minor used imperial coinage as a vehicle for personal civic prestige. The city had held the title of neokoros under earlier emperors, and its mints remained active through Elagabalus's short, chaotic reign largely through bureaucratic momentum rather than any imperial directive.

Elagabalus was murdered in 222 AD, barely four years into his reign, at age eighteen.
