PREFACE. When I published, in 187!, the collection of boards titled » Choice of coins Greeks”, I screw forced, by the circumstances, to delete the text enough volu- miner who should have accompanied these boards, and of replace it with a simple table explanatory to which I joined the note next : » The text of the work, of which the » manuscript se found at Paris during both seats, not having been able to be printed there, will be > published immediately that I will have finished the additions and the changes who, in the inter- »valley of two years, have become necessary.” During the ten years who se are elapsed since then, I am put in effect, to more- sirs times, at the revision of my manuscript. But by the extension that my collection had taken in the interfaits and by the meeting of a crowd of parts news in the museums and the collections private that I continued to visit, the number of describe- tions and of comment increased of way to exceed of a lot the limits of the work projected, even after that several parts important in had summer pruned by of publications inserted in different magazines. He I therefore had to resolve see you- dify one more times the text, to reduce the number of descriptions and corrections, and not to touch to numismatics of more than one country that so as not to omit the weight of parts already reproduced on the boards 1). From there the apparent gaps, for example to the Boeotia and to Acarnania of which I have treated elsewhere numismatics in detail, then to Italy, to the Thessaly and to islands of the Greece, on which I count publish more late monographs special. So that announced it the title of my publication of 1871, — title that I don't have not preserved, seen the character different from the new text and the series of new plates, — my intention from then was of report of coins rare and unpublished of my own collection. Today this collection reaches the figure of nearly sixteen thousand coins Greek, she don't inspires me more the same kind of interest than when she was smaller: she doesn't represents more, in my eyes, that one kind of complement from other collections existing, and the source essential information the more miscellaneous. Therefore, the desire for collector, of publish the parts who him belong, has stopped to exist ; and if however, in the pages who follow, I give the description of a number consi- maple of parts unpublished and of varieties news, drawn of my collection, it's that often I don't the ai purchased only for power the describe at the same time as else3 parts similar, scattered and often bad classified in the cabinets the more various, for do of rectifications or for propose of restitutions. It is mainly of ') It goes without saying that many coins, engraved in 1870, have now lost the charm of novelty
II the meeting of parts original and fingerprints, taken indifferently in all the the collections accessible, what is result the series studies, attributions, restitutions and remarks, added to descriptions. The present collection — illustrated of new boards autotypical, reproducing 234 coins, and of 31 thumbnails interspersed in the text — contains more of 2200 my- naies different who se distribute out of about 470 localities and 75 princes or dynasts. Among these latest include some new names 2 ), and among the first close of forty cities, of which names first appear in numismatics 3 ) or of which the currencies, known since little, do not have not been yet the subject of a study whatever conch 4 ). In good of case we will find of lists complete of some categories of coins 5 ) and, for the first times, will appear also the colonies Roman Dium, Pella, Pliilippi, Buthrotum, Dyme, Cnosus, Parium etc. with the attribution reasoned of coins with names of magistrates. Finally, alphabetical tables will facilitate research on the types, the registrations, the signs of value, the weight, the dates etc. In order of distinguish clearly the news boards autotypical of the nine boards engraved of the old » Choice of coins Greek” °), I have marked the first of letters A— J. The referrals se will therefore citing Plate A—-J and » Choice” ft. I—IX. The currencies, without indication of office where they se find, are of my collection. The abbreviations, adopted in the text, se reduce to more usual, like : to right(right), to left(left), C(circle plain), C(circle) p(erlé), M(a) Collection), etc. In the goal to abbreviate, as much as possible, referrals to my previous publications I give some here the list, with the indication magazines and other works, where it is located wind inserted : 1.

The printing of the work having lasted eighteen month, 1 occasion of pass of a system to one other less vicious therefore does not have missed. Also did I abandoned, from the' page 170, the spelling half Greek and half Latin names geographical, historical and mythological and me am I put to
IV the transcribe, in the titles and the descriptions, next Greek spelling, ortho- graph who has been adopted then, without exception, in the index. In the rest of the text I am served, in general, of the transcription French usual, all the times that he it was of a name known. It is thus that we will find Miletus, Ariarathes, Seleukos, when these words are placed in title: in speaking of this city or of these kings, we will find Miletus, Ariarathes, Seleucus. When these were unusual names, like Ankaios, Kidrarnos that he would have me repugnant to write A ncée, Cidramus , I have kept the spelling Greek. This who disappears the more this book, this are certainly the mistakes of style, of which he must abound, and it's there especially what to me done claim indulgence benevolent of my readers. People will ask me why I have written in a language which is not mine. My response is very simple; this were friends and knowledge in France which, already before 1870, committed me to publish the » Choice of Greek coins. In remelting little little by little the handwritten, I have continued naturally to me serve of the same language, and the work finished, he don't could more be question of the translate, especially since I had to say what is written in French he would have more readers. Spelling errors by against are less to be attributed to my iguorance than to the circumstance that, seen the say- tance of places, I had to give up the last revision of tests. He me rest again to thank everyone who have good wanted put at my disposal the treasures of which they are the preservatives or the owners, and particularly those who have ease my studies by abandoning myself liberally many fingerprints, in particular MM. the preservatives of Museum British, of Office from France, of Cabinets of The Hague, from Copenhagen, from Gotha, from Dresden, from Munich, of Vienna, of all the Cabinets in Italy and of the one from Athens, and finally MM. Waddington, Lucien of Hirsch and F. Feuardent. My feelings of recognition are however due everywhere particularly to my friend, Mr. J. -P. Six, who has good wanted present my work to the Academy, who since took care of the impression of handwritten with more of dedication lies that if he se barrel acted cleanly work, who happened loaded, in true collaborator, of the surveillance continue of printing, of the supply of characters and of mono- grams, of the revision of tests and of the improvement of text, in correcting the style, in straightening of errors, in adding of notes and even abandoning myself, well of times, the fruit of his clean research, among others the arrangement of coins Cypriots. Finally, I would not like to close this preface without note that typographers, MM. of Roever Krober-Bakels se are acquitted, with the bigger zeal, of the task ungrateful of printing of my handwritten, everything bristled monograms, of characters strange and of letters archaic and unusual.

III and LIV.) Today I could add a new one continuation of parts who return in the same category ; but counting the publish in a work separated, I don't have detached for this work only a few coins of a interest particular. 2 ) Postolacca, Coin catalog of islands, No., 621. 1 LETTERK.

The head helmeted, of which the side currency law previous is imprinted, looks like to heads of Ares found on bronze coins and money of Larinum 5 ) and from Rome: 6 ) as well as the first, these show equal- lies the plays covered of a beard light. The name of Oayqayôqccs must se report, just as that of Aevxmnog on other coins from Metaponto, to the head which he accompanies, opinion which appears fully confirmed by the done that the parts, on which se read one or the other of these names, are con- temporary. This results clearly currencies to the head of Leucippus, who, precisely as our No. 21, are marked of a k au right and from ona to reverse 7). Judging by the meaning of the word Oaqqciyôqccg, we could see well a nickname of Ares. By against, in taking into account the meaning of name of Aevy.mnog, the one of Tharragoras, by analogy, could apply to something hero of Metaponto who was a companion of Leucippus or who belonged to the family of this last.

On the monuments figurative of antiquity we meeting quite frequently of columns topped with a urn or amphora, either as ornaments of a sanctuary, either simply in order to indicate the presence of a place sacred. From a passage of Pausanias (IX, 30, 7) he would seem result, that in antiquity the column overcome of a urn designated more especially a tomb, and today this opinion seems generally be adopted. Also so much Fiorelli that Sambon they describe the head of our currency like „ monument sepul- cral”. But still we would like deduce from the passage cited, that the elders would have good pu place sometimes their ballot boxes funeral on of steles, the way reserved, of which expresses himself Pausanias at subject of so-called tomb of Orestes, se ready hardly, without other testimonies more precise and more direct, to opinion good stopped only in the columns topped urns he flaw see, absolutely and exclusively, tombs. The stele of name of Posidonia can very well indicate therefore, at place of a tomb, a of sanctuaries of the city, like p. ex. the one of Poseidon. Vhurioi. 26. /R 20 ra .

Like Eryx and Eryke, Herbessos, Hybla, Thermae etc. were of names worn each by two or three localities different of the Sicily, thus Amestratos and Mytistratos could very good be those of two cities different of the even island, and all the more easily, that they were still distinguished by their shapes good attested.

The name of the river , of which the letters finals nas still stand out clearly, must have counted in everything eight or new letters; but I have in vain searched among the rivers Sicilians one name of this ending, who matches to remains of the legend of our currency.

Waiting the discovery of a exemplary, more complete throughout right criticism, I think that we can very good classify the currency to the Sicily.

The currency No. 25, during long time the only one known of the group, has summer classified to an Apollonia located close from the mouths of the Danube by Sestiui (Museum Boiler p. 30, pl.

Gr. p. 16 and Supplement, p. 114), and to Apollonia in Illyria by the baron by Koeline (Museum Kotschoubey I, p. 332). The last of these classifications is motivated to the way following: „ Borrell attributes these coins to Apollonia of Clialciuice; but their resemblance with the coins of Panticapaea was presumed rather, that they belong to a city of this name less distant of Bosphorus, like was Apollonia in Illyria /” In the Numismatics Clironicle of 1873, p. 12, note 9, I have proposes of res- titrate these coins to Apollonia on the Pont-Euxm , colony miiesian like Panticapaea, who hit money to the same types of the head of iion and of the star, emblems of Miletus.

According to their weight, these coins appear be drachmas of gr. 4.71, of tetroboles of gr. 3.20, of dioboles of gr. 1.60 and of fractions of the mite. The weight of the drachma would therefore correspond to the one of trited of stater, golden pale, attributed to Miletus (Brandis p. 394.). Myæanfî&n. 28. Æ 21m . Gr. 5.70 (hole).

— 47 laughing at me seems impossible, so much to cause of the manufactures of autonomous parts, that especially to cause of the legend of the bronzes of Commodus, who should be cebacthnhn accompanied by several titles honorifics of the city. Because from the time of Augustus, probably when Archelaus establishes his residence in the island of Elaeousa, this one received the name of Sebaste , in honor of Augustus, to who the king of Cappadocia owed the annexation of a part of the Cilicia to her roy- alm. Also the coins from the time imperial, from Augustus to Ya- the air, do they wear constantly the name of Sebaste; and the only currencies, hit with the name of Elaeousa, that we know until present, are unp tetradrachm from the beginning of the 1st century BC J.C. 13 ) and two species of bronze zes, one with the head of Zeus je Eiké 13 ), and the other with the head of Tyche fe Hermes 14 ). 2. One island of eight stages in circumference only, located in face of Rhodes, close from the Chersonese coast of Rhodes , who was called 'EXsoûffaa or 'Elaiovacc (Strabo, p. 05 1 and 652).

She seems having paid of insigni- contributions fiantes (300 at 100 dr.), and the ancient historians do not don't talk more than of 4. 1 island of Ehcuouaa, that Strabo, p. 614, place to the entrance to the gulf Elaitic, to the west of Pitané , in noticing that in face of her, on the coast, he y had a locality of the name of Atarneus. It's probably the same island, including Pliny, H. N. Y, 38, mentions, and who today is called H. Georgios. 5.

Elaeous on the Hellespont is therefore the alone who, at point of view of the import tance, can be putting in parallel with Elaeousa of Cilicic; and like nor this one, nor the island of the Caries don't can pretend to bronzes, of which he is question, and that he y has very few likelihood, that the Jonian city and the island wind turbine of the same name have never minted currency, he doesn't stay had effect that the city of Chersonese, which or can classify the group. Neither the factory nor the types currencies do not oppose this attribution, who until better reviews, must good be accepted. The types of the crown , of the bow and of Artemis, which show the parts autonomous, se find with of modifications, on the three bronzes the effigy of Commodus. The figure of No. 44, performed by the legend itself,aptemic, is a good guy curious, which I don't know the same among the number of others monuments of antiquity. The animal that she holds the left hand, — the alone attribute of the goddess, —— looks a lot to one little pig with the head tour in low, symbol of which we didn't have not again observed the relationship with Artemis.

J. C., during which Mithradates VI exercised his influence on Athens 15a ). From good hour already the islands from Lemnos, from Imbros and Scyros were oc- cupped by of clerouehes Athenians 15b ) and, even after enslavement of the Greece by the Romans, these islands continued of stay areas of the city from Athens.

— 52 — This proposal, who would do withdraw from Thrace coins, who have a resemblance striking with those by Kotys I and Kypsela , 2 ~) does not have knew se do of supporters serious ; and the observation of the places from which the small ones come bronzes in question, gives fully reason to those who doubted of the jus- tesse of the new attribution. Because all the clues carry to believe that these coins come from enough regularly of the valley of VHebros; and more of a times I have found of these parts in of batches of coins antiques who, during the construction of the path of iron, have summer collected in the country located between Aenos and Hadrianopolis, it's to say along of Hebros and in the see- sinage of Kypsela.

Sestini perfectly recognized, that this bronze had to belong to some dynast tlirace, but he did not succeed step by step decipher the legend.

The particularity, by which this tetradrachm se distinguishes of other examples please who are of a work enough barbarian, consists of this than one leaves the types and the legend BAdAEfis: aysimaxoy are of quite artistic execution beautiful and neat, and that else leaves the name of Skostokes is engraved with a way entirely different from rest of the legend, in large, thick letters, among which the omicron appear in shape of globules, similar to those of the legend of parts of king Audoléon, ayap.ae.nt.s. This part of registration done so definitely the effect to be the work additional of a barbaric hand or little exercised, to which were submitted of corners that had been engraved by a artist more skillful. If the Skostokes , of which the name figure on tetradrachms, was in effect one boss or dynast Thracian, — like the homonymous character of bronze No. 61, — we could conclude of observation curious that we come of do, that in seizing of the city where Lysimachus had hit his emblem parts of term, Skostokes was served first of corners available, found in the workshop monetary of this locality, in y adding his own name, and what then only he had proceeded to do engrave the currencies almost bar- bars, that we know by the work of Thousand, and of which the weight are even less high who the one of our room. 67. /R 33m .

The first of parts of Patraos, that I just from describe, se distinguishes of staters ordinary this king no only by the manufactures, the finesse of write it ture and execution of group of fighters, but especially by the type of side right. At place of a head laureate of Apollo, we're there see, as well as on the parts following No. 7—9, a head virile, strong and hard of expression, sometimes entirely naked, sometimes girded of a tapeworm. Although this head appears hold of portrait, he must, this me seems, se keep of want to recognize the one of Patraos ; because he is very little probable, that the first, who in antiquity, se either served of the effigy royal like monetary type, have been a of kings of Peony. The portraits of this like, those of Alexander understood, don't appear not be previous to the year 306 av. J. c. 33b 3~) See Num. Chrono. 1875, pl. I, 6. 83 ) Like he is admitted enough generally that it is necessary see portraits in the heads of coins Persian Satraps (Pharnabazes, Orontas, Spithridates, etc.), that this either that of king Persian reigning, or good the one of satrap himself, he go away would follow, that use, of se serve of portraits like types monetary, goes back up, in Asia, until at beginning of IVa century av. J. c.
59 — If the head of our currencies is not at attribute neither to Apollo nor to the king himself, he must maybe there see a head of Heracles , to which would fit perfectly the neck powerful and the short hair. It is thus that the hero is represented on the coins of predecessor of Patraos, in the group of reverse of coins of Lykkeios. Finally there is still the type of wild boar of No. 9, which appears be favorable to our proposal. However we could think also to Paion . son of Ares and eponymous hero of the Peones 3Q, or in Ares himself. As for the bronzes, who have at right one head of Zens and on the reverse a eagle or a lightning, and (who, a) because of their constant monogram PP, have summer attri- mist to Patraos, Mr. Six has proven to the obvious that they do not relate neither to this king, nor to sound era 35 ). Like they come from almost constantly of finds do in Macedonia and in Peony, he must the provisionally classify to uncertain of first of these countries 30 J. Until present we don't knows not of coins in copper struck by the three kings of Paeonia 37 ). By this done and by the stallion the coinage of this country presents a analogy complete with the one of Damastion and of a few others cities of Vlllyrie , thus that I have it already pointed out in my “Beitraege” 1873, p. 107 and 108.
