Kidramos was located near the present day city of Yorga, Turkey. We know precious little about it outside of its coins, though this one couldn’t really say less. On the obverse we have Tyche, the goddess of fortune. On the reverse we have a cornucopia. Thus, it seems that Kidramos was very much an agricultural town, with consistent hopes for the harvest.
