| Additional information |
Cidrama was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage output was sparse enough that individual issues are difficult to sequence within a reign. Under Elagabalus, the city struck bronze on the authority of the Conventus of Alabanda — the Roman judicial district that grouped several small Phrygian communities together for administrative purposes, a common arrangement that gave inland mints like Cidrama their operating framework without requiring direct imperial oversight.
The reference VI#5393 places this within Voegtli's corpus of Anatolian civic bronzes, a catalog that itself remains incomplete for many Conventus of Alabanda issues.
