| Additional information |
Antioch ad Meandrum was a small Carian city whose coinage output was limited and episodic — this tetradrachm falls within the city's late Hellenistic civic issues, struck after it gained a degree of autonomy under the waning Seleucid reach and before Rome's reorganization of western Asia Minor rendered such independent civic silver largely obsolete. The magistrate name Damokrates appears on the issue as the responsible mint official, a practice common to civic tetradrachms of the region.
