| Aanvullende informatie |
Docimeum, in Phrygia, was one of the region's more active civic minting authorities under the Julio-Claudians, issuing bronze coinage largely to serve local exchange needs that imperial silver couldn't efficiently reach. This particular issue falls somewhere within Nero's fourteen-year reign, and the precise dating within that window remains unresolved — RPC I 3213 makes no attempt to narrow it further.
The city later became famous not for its coins but for its marble quarries, which supplied some of the finest Phrygian pavonazzetto to Roman imperial building projects.
