Nicopolis ad Istrum, founded by Trajan near the confluence of the Iatrus and Danube rivers to commemorate his Dacian campaigns, maintained active bronze coinage throughout the Severan period as a functioning civic mint serving the Roman province of Moesia Inferior. The reference to AMNG I-I#1365v — the "v" denoting a variety not fully catalogued in Pick's original Antike Münzen Nord-Griechenlands — suggests this piece diverges in some detail, likely a die combination or minor reverse type variation, from the primary listing.
