| Additional information |
Sardis had been the administrative capital of the Roman province of Asia for over a century by the time these coins were struck, but the city's mint activity under the Flavians remains sparsely documented. This hemiassarion falls within the brief window of Vespasian's early reign, when provincial bronze issues were being quietly reorganized across Asia Minor following the disruptions of the Year of the Four Emperors. The RPC II 1307 type is known from a small number of specimens, and die linkage studies suggest very limited production runs from the Sardian mint during this period.
