| Additional information |
Alexandria Troas — not to be confused with Ptolemaic Alexandria in Egypt — was a coastal city in the Troad region whose early autonomous bronze coinage predates its formal refounding by Antigonus I around 310 BC. These tiny fractional bronzes circulated in a period when the city was still navigating the collapse of Persian satrapal authority and the subsequent scramble among Alexander's successors for control of the northwestern Aegean coast.
