Bruzus was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage ceased almost entirely after the Severan period — Gordian III's reign represents one of the last gasps of local bronze production there before the provincial mint system collapsed under the pressures of the third-century crisis. The city's issues under Gordian are sparse, and VII.1#716 is not a common type by any measure.
