| Additional information |
Assus was a small coastal polis in the Troad whose civic coinage under the Antonines depended almost entirely on the personal initiative of local magistrates — the strategos named in the legend, likely Tiberius Claudius Aristoladas, would have funded or organized this issue himself, a practice of civic euergetism rather than central monetary policy. Issues attributable to his magistracy are rare enough that die links across the surviving corpus remain poorly mapped.
