Abstract

In 190 BC, on the eve of the Battle of Magnesia ad Sipylum, the stationing of the armies of Antiochus III in the vicinity of Thyateira occasioned a bronze issue in just one denomination. It can be regarded as the precursor to the “quasi-municipal” coinages, a phenomenon typical for Syria during the late Seleucid period. The issue displays a royal type for the obverse accompanied by the ethnic. The countermarks on both known specimens reveal the revalidation of the coinage in response to new circumstances after Antiochus III’s defeat. The city then passed into the hands of the Attalids and in the later part of the 2nd century BC bronzes were issued in four denominations. The minting activity of the city was discontinued until the Roman imperial period.
