Aanvullende informatie

Abydos, positioned at the narrowest crossing of the Hellespont, derived its economic power largely from tolls levied on Black Sea grain traffic — a revenue stream that funded civic coinage well into the first century BC. By the time this issue was struck, the city was operating under the shadow of Mithridatic expansion, and local magistrate coinage of this kind served partly to assert municipal continuity against that pressure. Kallistratos appears as a magistrate name on several Abydene issues, suggesting either a prominent family with sustained civic influence or a term of office that extended across multiple emission phases.
