| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Koinon of Bithynia was the provincial assembly responsible for organizing the imperial cult in that region, and its coinage served the festival and ceremonial needs of that cult rather than ordinary commerce. This piece belongs to a series issued under Hadrian's active patronage of the Greek East — he visited Bithynia at least twice, and the province held particular personal significance after the drowning of Antinous in the Nile in 130 AD, whose cult Hadrian promoted aggressively across the eastern provinces.
The COM BIT abbreviation denotes the Commonium Bithyniae, the koinon itself acting as issuing authority.
