Additional information

Sabratha was one of the three cities of the Tripolis region that gave the province of Africa Proconsularis its informal identity, and its civic bronze issues under Tiberius reflect a municipally-driven loyalty display rather than any imperial directive. Rome did not administer local bronze coinage centrally in this period — individual cities struck on their own initiative, in their own weights, for purely local circulation. MAA 43d is among the documented varieties within this civic series, distinguished by specific magistrate references that tie the issue to a narrow administrative window within Tiberius's long reign.
