From the times of Caracalla (193-217 AD.) and up to Philip the Arab (244-249 AD.), Amphipolis has to show only extremely rare imperial coins. The reason for this is the great number of autonomous coin issues with Alexander, which Caracalla established! Less coins with the inscription ΚΟΙΝΟΎ, were issued in Thessaloniki with the additional inscription ΟMΌΝΟΙΑ and Veroia with the inscription of their city (ΒΕΡΟΙΕΩΝ).
