Except for the few Cases where, as a result of local relationships, the otherwise unrelated knew full name of an emperor appears or where the attached year of the city's era provides something for the chronology they are almost never considered for the questions that concern us here.

But from the mass there are a few rows of coins that stand out, how they have a special place in numismatics never except during such examinations should be taken into account. It is about that pre- ments of the imperial era, for which in particular the absence of characteristic of the city name. All these rows of coins have to be trading is not the place here*), especially since some of it is for the

The basis of coinage law is autonomy. To that Time when Rome extended its rule over the Greek East expanded was the number of autonomous cities, associations, princes bigger there than ever before. Roman rule did not change a lot about it; Most states retained their autonomy, They received them first. This meant that the diversity remained of Greek influence; every free community By virtue of its autonomy, it proposed its own for local use Coins. — Anyone who exercises the right to coin coins identifies themselves on the Coin as the coiner. In ancient times, in small proportions- nits, the city coat of arms was often sufficient - because city It's mostly about coins - alone; the name becomes, if at all, only indicated by the first letters; Fully spelled out city names can only be found quite late. In Roman times, however, a general circle of people already dominated Representations have the Greek character, which is common everywhere, has no local meaning anywhere; only a few cities have theirs retain characteristic types. So the picture was no more suitable to mark the sovereign; this task fell to him writing to. The mint lord, city or prince, puts his name, spelled out in full, preferably with all the epithets

So if certain coins from Roman times, by type, Style or location can be assigned to a specific city, but this city is not explicitly identified by the legend as that If the coin is called mistress of the coin, one can always only say, that the coin was struck in the city in question; from She hasn't beaten her yet. But the question is who should have exerted the influence differently, is answered by itself. If the coin is neither from the autonomous individual state is still beaten by a xotyöy, so we can do it only have to do with the influence of the imperial government. In fact, everything speaks in favor of this explanation, which for Alexander dria is undoubtedly correct and generally recognized, also on the related coin series from Antioch, Caesarea and others. out- stretch.

Finally, the dating needs to be taken into account. If Greek When Chinese cities date their coins, this is partly what happens through the city era partly through the names of the epoch or njonen or the influential official; this type of file tion is from the Greeks also under Roman rule until retained to stop minting. On the coins, which we are concerned with here, on the other hand, the calculation prevails according to imperial years, partly the Roman dating through the titles of the emperor. Now at least the former dating is encountered occasionally also on other coins '), including those that are safe are characterized by cities; but only earned in this stability them special attention. Because the dating according to ruler years is non-Greek.

And so he did The emperor initially handed over the copper coinage in this area to the Senate left. Of course, that didn't last long. Traian already has it certainly minted copper coins in Caesarea, and when we see that from his government to the main site of the Antiochene Copper coins contrary to Senate usage, Greek emblems contains writing, this seems to indicate that since then also the imperial copper of Antioch despite the SC on the reverse is no longer shaped by the Senate but by the Emperor.

The beginning of the year would be in harmony with the new era been brought; and we would then have for the Caesarian era to adopt the same New Year as for the Seleucid.
