Yorum
The magistrate’s name is also on coins of Antoninus Pius and M. Aurelius (BMC Lydia p. 257 no. 138, p. 258 nos. 141-44) and the style of the engraving looks much like the latter (especially with isolated cult implements). The winged caduceus reverse of Aurelius with a different magistrate’s name is surely by same die engraver. He makes small dies for the flan, beautifully proportioned busts (with heads tilted slightly up), leaving much room between the head and beaded border (with dots so small it almost looks like a line border) and a great deal of space between sparse letters on legends. Flans are thin.
