Kibyra was an unusually powerful city for inland Phrygia — its league with neighboring Bubon, Balboura, and Oinoanda controlled enough territory that Rome formally dissolved the federation in 167 BC after deciding the arrangement had grown too politically convenient for local dynasts and too inconvenient for Roman interests. This coinage likely begins almost immediately after that dissolution, when Kibyra continued striking silver independently despite the reorganization of the surrounding region into what would eventually become the province of Asia.

The series runs to the Mithridatic disruptions of 88–84 BC, when Pontic forces swept through western Anatolia and civic coinage across the region collapsed or went underground.
