| Aanvullende informatie |
Abydos, controlling the narrowest crossing of the Hellespont, extracted toll revenue from Black Sea grain traffic for centuries — wealth that funded civic coinage even as Pontic and later Roman power reshaped the region's political arrangements. This tetradrachm falls within the city's late autonomous silver series, issued during a period when Mithridates VI held nominal suzerainty over much of the surrounding coastline. The magistrate name Dionysios appears on several die combinations within this type, suggesting either an extended term or a family holding the issuing office across consecutive years.
