Æ36 - Antoninus Pius Π ΚΛ ΑΤΤΑΛΟϹ ΑΝΕΘΗΚΕ ΛΑΟΔΙΚΕΩΝ

Laodicea ad Lycum sat at the junction of two major Anatolian trade routes, making it one of the wealthier cities of the Phrygian interior, and the dedicatory formula in this coin's inscription — naming a local magistrate, Attalo, as the man who "dedicated" the issue — reflects the euergetism that underwrote civic coinage across the Greek East. Magistrates were expected to fund or underwrite coin production from personal wealth, treating it as a form of public munificence rather than a state expenditure.

The conventus of Cibyra grouped several Phrygian and Lycian communities under a single Roman judicial circuit, and coins struck within it during Antoninus Pius's reign cluster tightly in the 139–144 window, likely tied to a specific festival cycle or civic renegotiation of privileges with Rome.
