| Additional information |
Herakleia Pontika operated as a tyranny under the brothers Timotheos and Dionysios during this period, following the rule of their father Satyros and uncle Klearchos — the latter a former student of Socrates who became one of antiquity's more notorious autocrats. The joint magistracy implied by the naming convention on this issue reflects the political arrangement after Timotheos died around 337 BC and Dionysios consolidated sole control, suggesting pieces attributable to the full dual-name period fall within a narrow production window.
