Notes
- Note: Information from Saadet Taner
- Note: The issues of Amisus are by far the most numerous, followed by those of Sinope and Amastris. The numbers of coins from the other mints are small (Gaziura 2; Pimolisa 1). It is possible that the lot in Ankara derives from the large hd. mentioned in JNG 1969, p. 79, as appearing already in 1947 at Ordu
- Note: Information from P. Franke indicates that there should probably be added to this hd. a few AE from Pergamum, Rhodes, Side, Laodiceia ad Mare, and Seleuceia Pieria
