I didn&#039;t notice that anyone posted a coin of <b>Claudiopolis</b>. There were actually five cities named after emperor Claudius, this coin being issued in the Claudiopolis of Bithynia. There was also a city by the same name in Cilicia, and Pliny mentions three others, one in Cappadocia, one in Cataonia, and one in Galatia. I&#039;m either late posting this coin, or early, as the town is spelled with a K on the coin...KΛYΔIO-ΠOΛEITΩN.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is one of my favorite provincials, a bronze of Domitian that&#039;s almost Imperial in style and fabric...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]660277[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>And in an effort to catch up, here is an issue of Trajan from <b>Hierapolis</b>. Zumbly has already given us a couple of instructive paragraphs about the city on the previous page...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]660279[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
