| Additional information |
Antandros occupies an unusual position in Aegean numismatic history. The city on the Troad changed hands repeatedly during the late fifth and early fourth centuries — held briefly by Athens, occupied by Spartan-backed forces, and caught between competing Persian satrapal interests. Its coinage is consequently rare and chronologically difficult to pin down, the civic emissions squeezed into windows of actual autonomous control rather than continuous production.
The SNG von Aulock and Berry concordance pins this type firmly but the surviving population remains thin.
