| Additional information |
Adramyttion, a coastal city in Mysia founded as an Athenian cleruchy around 422 BC under the direction of Aristides' son Lysimachos, struck small bronze civic issues during the fourth century as the region passed through successive Achaemenid, then Macedonian spheres of influence. The city's autonomy to strike bronze — if not silver — persisted through these political shifts, and these minor bronzes circulated locally alongside Persian and later Macedonian issues.
The SNG France corpus remains the primary reference for Mysian civic bronzes of this weight class.
