Eucarpia was a minor Phrygian city whose civic bronze issues under Septimius Severus frequently name a local magistrate in the inscription — here Lucius Allius Proclus, whose title as epimeletes identifies him as a civic administrator responsible for overseeing the mint's production. This kind of named magistracy on provincial bronze is more than honorific; it reflects genuine civic accountability for coinage quality and output, a practice well-documented across the Apamean conventus during the Severan period.
Eucarpia's issues are notably scarce in collections outside Turkish institutional holdings.
