| Aanvullende informatie |
Themisonium was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Severus Alexander represents one of the more obscure corners of Roman provincial minting. The city held the right to strike bronze — a privilege granted selectively by Rome — and exercised it sporadically. RPC VI 5523 is recorded from a very small number of specimens, making die study across the type difficult.
At 39mm, this is among the larger flans produced by Themisonium, suggesting a deliberate effort to issue high-denomination civic bronze during Alexander's reign.
