| Additional information |
The window of 315–312 BC places this coin squarely within the wars of the Diadochi — specifically the period when Ptolemy I seized Cyprus from Antigonus, bringing the island's semi-autonomous city-kingdoms under direct Macedonian successor control. Several Cypriot mints struck fractional gold during precisely this interval, likely to fund military garrisons or mercenary payments, which is why so many issues from this moment resist firm attribution to a single city.
