Æ28 - Caracalla ΜΙΔΑΕΩΝ

Midaeum was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage output was modest even by provincial standards, and issues attributable to Caracalla's reign are among the thinner parts of the local sequence. The city fell within the conventus of Synnada, the administrative district through which Roman judicial and fiscal authority was channeled across central Phrygia — a region whose bronze coinages were heavily influenced by the explosion of civic minting that followed the Severan dynasty's aggressive cultivation of eastern provincial loyalty.
