| Aanvullende informatie |
Thyatira, a Lydian city better known from Paul's letter to the churches of Asia than from its coinage, was a significant producer of large civic bronzes under the Antonines. This piece falls within the final year of Commodus's reign — he was strangled on New Year's Eve 192 AD — and the magistrate name in the legend, Artemidoros son of Phlorou, anchors it to a specific local administrative moment otherwise unattested in the literary record.
The double ethnic formula in the legend reflects Thyatira's practice of civic display through coinage weight and module at a scale that few Asian mints matched.
