| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Philip I (the Arab) facing right, viewed from the rear, rendered in the typical provincial style of the mid-third century. The emperor's paludamentum is visible over the left shoulder, and the cuirass is indicated by incised detailing on the chest. The encircling Greek legend runs along the beaded border, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Thyatira, a Lydian city best known from its dyeing industry and its mention in Revelation as one of the Seven Churches of Asia, struck prestige bronzes under Philip I that advertised multiple festival titles simultaneously — the Augusteia, Pythia, and the magistracy of Archimedes compressed onto a single flan. This kind of accumulative titulature was competitive civic signaling, cities of the Pergamene conventus jostling for the honorific distinctions Rome permitted them to display.
The Pythian games connection placed Thyatira in deliberate cultural proximity to Apollo's Delphic prestige. At 40mm this is a civic bronze of the heaviest ceremonial register.
