Occasionally this menu has an exclamation mark after the city, eg The Hive (!). My best guess is this marks Golden Age cities, but the manual didn't cover it.

yup, that means the city is in the golden age (also the city name will highlight in red for an upcoming or current drone riot -- prepare the staple gun!). you can also hit the "citizens" key (between "production" and
"garrison") to visually check that the city was prime to go golden age or drone riot and change workers into specialists from the f4 screen too!
the "!" is definitely lots better than having the city name turn a slightly brighter shade of white like in (as of patch v2.42) civ2. gotta love it.
