Uncertain (AD 69-81) AE 18 - Domitian339 viewsDomitian, as Caesar, 69-81 AD. AE18 (4.36g, 7h). M. Hirrius Fronto Neratius Pansa, legatus Augusti. Struck 77/8-79/80 AD. Laureate head right / [ЄΠI]/ ΠANCA/ ΠPЄBЄYTOY in three lines. VF, brown patina, areas of flat strike, die break on reverse. Apparently unique. Ex Wagner Coll.
A logical guess for the place of minting would be Caesarea, the principal mint in the region, where similar coins carrying this legend were struck under Titus. The authors of RPC reject this attribution, however, based on the absence of a date and the metal composition.Feb 03, 2011

In the Gorny sale, the head on the obverse is identified as Athena, but the clearly short hair makes such a determination unlikely. Nevertheless, the style and fabric of this coin suggests a mint in northwest Asia Minor, perhaps Ionia.Jul 11, 2010

The bee would seem to point to an attribution to Ephesos, but there is really nothing like it in that series. Silver fractions with turtles have been attributed to various locations from Lesbos to Lycia, and provide no help in identifying this unrecorded type.Mar 07, 2010

While Grant in Essays Mattingly posited a mint in Cilicia for this coin’s origin, his hypothesis is far from conclusive. The similarity between this coin and RPC 5448 suggests they are part of the same issue, possibly struck shortly after the accession of Tiberius to the throne and the deification of Augustus, as evidenced by the legend, ΘEON AYTOKP A [TOPA].Jul 06, 2008

The reverse depicts what Johnston interprets as a relief map of the hinterland of Ephesos (the earliest Greek map and first physical relief map known) - the mountains Tmolos and Messogis between the river valleys of the Caister and Maeander, and three mountain ridges (Madranbaba Dagi, Karincali Dagi, and Akaba Tepesi). Johnston follows Six in suggesting that the coins were probably struck under the Persian general Memnon at Ephesos, circa 336-334 BC, in order to pay his army after he had captured the city, but before his defeat by Alexander at the Battle of Granicus in 334. However, this theory is still debated and doubted by some scholars, most recently by Leo Mildenberg.Nov 13, 2005
