A number of city-states in ancient Greece operated their own mints. Some of the earliest Greek mints were within city states on Greek islands such as Crete; for example an early mint existed at the ancient city of Cydonia on Crete at least as early as the fifth century BC.[1] Roman mints were spread widely across the Empire, and sometimes used for Propaganda purposes. The populace often learned of a new Roman Emperor when coins appeared with the new Emperor's portrait. Some of the emperors who ruled only for a short time made sure that a coin bore their image; Quietus, for example, ruled only part of the Roman Empire from 260 to 261 AD, and yet he issued several coins bearing his image.
