Additional information

Iconium sat at a crossroads between Lycaonia and Phrygia, changing hands repeatedly during the chaotic dissolution of Seleucid authority in Asia Minor. Civic bronze issues like this one were struck under the loose autonomy that followed — local magistrates authorizing small denominational coinage to meet market needs when no dominant regional power was enforcing monetary uniformity.

The Lykaoniens reference corpus remains one of the thinner areas of provincial numismatic scholarship, and attribution within it often rests on a handful of surviving specimens.
