| Additional information |
Synnada was the administrative seat of one of the judicial districts (*conventus*) into which Rome organized the province of Phrygia, and coins struck there under Marcus Aurelius reflect the city's ambition to assert regional prestige during a period when Phrygia was simultaneously being bled of manpower for the Parthian campaigns of Lucius Verus. Provincial bronze of this size and weight class from the Synnada mint is modestly scarce — the city was never a prolific issuer.
