Æ38 - Philip I ΕΠΙ ϹΤΡ ΑΥΡ ΦΑΒΙΑΝΟΥ Β ΑΔΡΑΜΥΤΗΝΩΝ

Adramyteum, a coastal city in Mysia with a harbor important enough for Rome to anchor an administrative conventus there, struck prolifically under Philip I — but issues naming the strategos Aurelius Fabianus in his second term of office are among the more precisely dateable of the city's provincial bronzes. The dual tenure notation (the B, marking his second strategia) narrows the window considerably within Philip's five-year reign and suggests a civic administration stable enough to reappoint the same magistrate.
