| Beschrijving keerzijde | Archaic cult statue of Athena Polias (the Palladium) standing to the right, depicted in the rigid, hieratic style befitting a sacred idol. The goddess brandishes a spear aloft in her raised right hand and holds a large round shield in her left, reflecting the venerable image of the city's divine protectress. The reverse legend, identifying the presiding prytanis Attalos and the civic ethnikon of the Synnadeans, is distributed around the type in two lines. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Synnada, a Phrygian city best known in antiquity as the source of marmor Phrygium — the purple-veined white marble prized by Roman emperors for palace decoration — issued civic bronzes under the authority of a locally elected prytanis. The inscription naming Attalos in this capacity is the coin's primary historical document: prytaneis served annual terms, making each named magistrate a fixed chronological anchor within a city's coinage sequence.
Synnada held conventus jurisdiction, meaning Roman magistrates traveled there to hear provincial legal cases — a status that brought prestige and presumably the civic confidence to issue coinage under named officials throughout the Antonine period.
