| Aanvullende informatie |
Synaus was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Marcus Aurelius was struck during the early co-reign with Lucius Verus, before the latter's death in 169 AD. The city's bronze issues from this period are rare enough that die studies remain incomplete — the local magistrates responsible for authorizing the strikes are often unattested elsewhere, and the abbreviated ethnic ϹΥΝΑΕΙΤΩΝ itself appears inconsistently rendered across the surviving corpus.
