Æ20 - Augustus ΜΕΝΕΛΑΟΥ ΜΗΝΟΚΡΙΤΟΣ, ΑΜΟΡ

Amorium was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Augustus typically names local magistrates responsible for the issue — here, Menelaos son of Menokritos, whose family is otherwise unattested. The Conventus of Synnada was one of the judicial districts Rome used to administer Asia Minor, and cities within it retained the right to strike small bronze for local use throughout the Augustan period. This piece is among the more obscure survivors of that arrangement.
