BODY
LAMPSACUS
ATTRIBUTION
The coinage here attributed to Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus)
follows closely the arrangement in an unpublished manuscript of Edward T. Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward
Theodore, 1886-1941") (http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) in which he outlined the Alexandrine output of that mint. There is a
drastic shift in the position of one series and the chronology has been modified to some extent; these alterations will be noted in the
relevant commentaries. Otherwise the catalogue reflects Newell’s preliminary thoughts on the Lampsacene coinage from the time of
Alexander to that of Lysimachus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus).
That the mint was Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) is basically
attested by the large issue with Pegasus forepart, the badge of the city, as its major control. This comes, however, at the end of the
sequence. The association of preceding issues rests largely upon stylistic criteria and the recurrence of secondary controls. There is
die linkage between series but unfortunately not nearly as much as in the case of Abydus where connections are firmly established.

As Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward Theodore, 1886-1941") (http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) notes,
Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) had long been an active mint, as
witness its extensive autonomous coinage. Furthermore, it was strategically located. Obviously the Hellespont played a vital role in
Alexander’s new empire, for the cities bordering on it provided the communicating lines between Asia (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Asia") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia) and the home base of Macedon. Maintenance of the necessary garrisons to
counter threats from the Persian satraps would have entailed considerable expense and it must have eventually become apparent that
opening a royal mint in that region was a practical measure. Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus")
(http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) with its long tradition of coinage, its supply of skilled workmen and available bullion, was a logical
choice.

For a few years after Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) began to strike


for Alexander (../../results?q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii), production was on a small
scale. There is no gold coinage and surviving tetradrachms and drachms are rare. Die linkage and stylistic homogeneity relate the
varieties of large silver: the simple caduceus with or without a secondary control, the elaborate caduceus with Ꜹ, and the club with or
without K below the stool. Obverses of the caduceus issue show a three-tier arrangement of the lion’s mane with the inner and central
rows in higher relief than the other tier. The die of the club issue separates the mane from the skin along a sharp vertical line. Locks
are now disposed in two tiers but still on two distinct planes. The Zeus of the early tetradrachms sits stiffly upright on a stool with rung,
his legs either close together or slightly spread and his feet on a footstool shown in perspective.

Drachms of very similar style are associated with the tetradrachms of Series I and II while drachms alone comprise Series III and IV.
The club and sword strikings of Series II and III share an obverse die. There is no die linkage to establish the position of the Series IV
star issue but it clearly belongs at the end of this early sequence.

Two varieties of bronzes can be connected with the Lampsacene silver of early date. The first has AΛEΞANΔPOY between a club and
a bow in case with a small epsilon below the type. The second issue reverses the position of the elements of the type and BAΣI is
inscribed between them with a star and delta in the lower field. The star is probably to be linked with the control of Series IV but the
letters have no parallel on the silver. Attribution to Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus")
(http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) rests on the style of the obverses. Bronze 15 is close to drachm 4 in profile and in the marked

numismatics.org/digitallibrary/ark:/53695/nnan49322 14/71
15.12.2019 ANS Digital Library: Alexander's Drachm Mints II
difference in relief of the sections of the lion’s mane. Other dies are similar to the silver dies of the early period and also to early dies of
Series V. Especially striking is the comparision between bronzes 20-21 and drachms 59-62 of the
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym1.jpg) issue. So close are profiles and treatment of the mane that all six dies might be the
work of a single hand. These connections between bronze and silver, extending over a number of series, suggest a more or less
steady output of bronze of Alexander (../../results?q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii) type
during the early years of minting at Lampsacus. The quantity involved may have been small, and there is no evidence that production
continued after Alexander’s death.

With Series V we come to the first major issue of the mint, a very substantial coinage of staters, tetradrachms, and drachms under the
control (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym1.jpg).6 On the initial reverses of the larger silver the monogram is missing;
obverse 25 links reverses with and without (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym1.jpg) . Obverses 22 and 26 are in the direct
tradition of the club tetradrachm: the vertical alignment of the inner locks of the mane and the double outline of the lower part of the
lion’s jaw. With 23 a new obverse style appears, to continue in 24-25 and 27-30. Heads are larger, the knotted paws below Heracles’
chin more prominent, and the inner locks of the mane follow the line of the lion’s jaw. Obverses 31-33 have still larger heads and a
bolder treatment of details. With 34-40 Heracles’ features are less gross and emphasis is placed on the rendering of the lion’s skin
which is drawn in tight folds over Heracles’ neck. The final tetradrachm dies, 41-42, show some resemblance in portraiture to the
preceding dies but manes are now depicted as heavy intertwining locks, the area of skin in front of the mane is greatly reduced, and
the knotted paws are very attenuated.

Reverses, too, show considerable variation. In the beginning the style differs little from that of the club tetradrachm but with Series V,
30, and especially 31-33 a distinctive representation appears: a slightly larger head with long pointed beard is joined to a heavy body,
legs wide apart under stiff folds of drapery. This peculiar style of a spread-lap Zeus is found at Abydus and seems to have been
copied for a few dies at Sardes; it is otherwise unparalleled in the Alexandrine coinage. Subsequent versions show the god in better
proportion and in more graceful pose. Legs are spread, the right foot higher than the left on the slanting footstool, but the exaggerated
lap has disappeared and the folds of the drapery are softer and more natural. The pattern of the tetradrachms is repeated in large
measure throughout the drachm issues.

On Series V gold coinage the goddess of the silver is replaced by addorsed horse foreparts. Early dies are of good style with Athena’s
hair twisted into corkscrew curls, reminiscent of the initial output of other mints. Subsequent dies show loose locks and finally tumbled
masses of hair which combine with fluttering crest terminals to convey an impression of agitation. The Nikes of 85-94 are slender and
well proportioned by comparison with the heavy and rather clumsy representations on later dies. Lettering, at first small and neat,
becomes larger and often poorly cut. At the end of the sequence, 108 is crude and possibly an imitation. Fractional gold is to be
associated with the early staters, 83 being similar to 91.

Series VI with (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym3.jpg) is another large emission, comparable in size to the preceding issue
to judge by the number of surviving specimens. Series VI output is limited to Philip II staters and Alexander (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii) drachms. On the gold the head of Hera is used as a
secondary control. This is the standard Chalcis type: head facing and forehead bound with a broad diadem above which there is a row
of discs. Later a serpent replaces the head. Reverse 120, with both head and a tiny serpent at bottom right, would seem to be a
transitional issue, combining the two secondary controls. Within the Philip II sequence the Apollo heads are notably similar; it is the
reverses that display stylistic variation. The early horses have thin stiff rear legs, close together, and forelegs arranged in a fan pattern.
Rear legs become heavier and separated while the forelegs are shown in agitated motion.

In the beginning the drachm issues are controlled by (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym3.jpg) alone. Later a serpent is
added as a secondary control; the Hera head does not appear. Stylistically the small silver resembles that of the
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym1.jpg) emissions.

After two large strikings the mint curtails production. Gold is still limited to Philip II staters and there are a few drachms. In Series VII
the serpent is the only control. Series VIII with (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym4.jpg) adds a grain ear as a supplementary
control in the exergue of the gold as well as a third control to lower right: a serpent on 165-67 and
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym5.jpg) on 168-69. The (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym5.jpg) also appears on
the single recorded drachm die and carries over to the (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym7.jpg) emission.

That the sequence thus far is correct is attested by the pattern of die linkage and the repetition of secondary controls.

Series IX with (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym6.jpg) or (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym7.jpg) is another very


large striking with more dies recorded for staters and drachms than elsewhere in the coinage to date. There is also greater diversity in
secondary controls.

15.12.2019 ANS Digital Library: Alexander's Drachm Mints II
A few Philip II staters are produced and then replaced by the standard Alexandrine type in the name of either Philip III (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Philip III") (http://nomisma.org/id/philip_iii_arrhidaeus) or the young Alexander (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii). Apparently Arrhidaeus now felt sufficiently secure in the
joint regency to sign his own money. Throughout the gold coinage there is no straightforward stylistic development of the obverse
heads. Athenas with tight corkscrew curls and Athenas with loose straggly locks exist side by side within the same secondary control,
attesting more than one engraver at work. Reverses are more consistent. On almost all dies Nike is now advancing to the left,
draperies aflutter.

The control for this issue, (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym6.jpg) and its mirror image
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym7.jpg) is a curious device. It reminded Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward
Theodore, 1886-1941") (http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) of the buckle for a sword belt (
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym12.jpg)) but it may be nothing more than a decorative motif.

With Series X bearing control Kl, tetradrachms reappear after a long absence to supplement a modest output of staters and an
abundant emission of drachms. There are new secondary controls: ⊙, (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym14.jpg), M or
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym15.jpg), (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym30.jpg), and
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym17.jpg). The last two quickly disappear but ⊙
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym14.jpg) and (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym15.jpg) or variations of it recur in
succeeding issues. On a few drachms of the Kl issue and (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym18.jpg) which follows there is
a revival of the spread-lap Zeus of the early coinage.8
In the absence of die linkage there can be no absolute certainty that the sequence of Series X-XIII is correct. Kl and
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym18.jpg) are the only issues with the spread-lap Zeus and they alone use
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym14.jpg) as a secondary control. Then, too, it might be assumed that the two small emissions
(Series XI and XII) rather than the somewhat larger amphora striking would follow the very substantial Kl coinage.
For the next issues there is die linkage, establishing the following pattern. There seem to have been two emissions with Mouse in
control. The first consisted of a few staters and a modest output of drachms, all with secondary controls. After it ended, Herm was in
charge of the new issue but for some reason his tenure was short-lived and Mouse was called back into service.9 The obverse die of
Herm and one from Mouse’s earlier emission were still usable and these, together with a few new dies, produced a small coinage of
drachms alone. One of the new dies carried over to Bird on Branch, an issue which terminated abruptly. Production was definitely
winding down; there was no need for secondary controls after the first Mouse striking.

The last pre-Lysimachus coinage at Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus),


Series XVIII, illustrates the crucial connection between die linkage and chronology. In his rough outline of the Lampsacene sequence,
Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward Theodore, 1886-1941") (http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) placed the
issue with forepart of Pegasus directly after that with (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym6.jpg) Series IX, and dated it ca.
318-316. In the 1955 study of the Bab Hoard, Thompson and Bellinger (../../results?q=name_facet:"Bellinger, Alfred R. (Alfred
Raymond), 1893-1978") (http://viaf.org/viaf/34584084) gave it the same relative position but dated it ca. 310, assuming an interval
without coinage between the death of Philip III and the agreement among the successors which gave Antigonus firm control of Asia
Minor (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Asia Minor") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia_minor).

We were all wrong! The Pegasus issue immediately precedes Lysimachus’s own coinage at Lampsacus (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) as is proved by a transferred obverse die: 533 and A of Plate
18.10
It is easy to see how we went astray. The (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym5.jpg) and particularly the distinctive device of
Artemis as secondary controls would seem to link the Pegasus issue with Series IX but there are counterbalancing connections.
Series IX and XIV both use (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym9.jpg) as a subordinate control; the
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym14.jpg) of the Pegasus striking first appears on the coinage of Kl and
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym18.jpg) and also serves as a secondary control on some Lysimachus (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus) drachms. The (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym27.jpg)
of Lysimachus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus) may be an elaboration of the
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym25.jpg) of the Pegasus issue.

In Newell's case there was an additional factor. His manuscript mentions three Pegasus coins as coming from the Sinan Pascha
Hoard, which was surely buried ca. 317 B.C. This hoard did include intrusions which is not surprising in a large deposit coming in
various lots at different times from a number of dealers.11 One assumes that Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward
Theodore, 1886-1941") (http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) himself later realized that the Pegasus coins did not belong to this
hoard for there is no coin of that issue in the ANS trays with Newell’s Sinan Pascha identification.

Now that the Pegasus issue has been re-dated, one can see that it fits much better at the end of the century than it did when it was
assigned to 318-316 or even 310. There is the evidence of four late hoards. In the case of the Asia Minor (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Asia Minor") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia_minor) 1961 Hoard both the dealer who recorded the deposit and
Charles Hersh (../../results?q=name_facet:"Hersh, Charles Austin, 1923-") (http://viaf.org/viaf/117145858072323022396) who
obtained specimens from it describe the Pegasus coins as the best preserved in the Lampsacus (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) sequence. There are also many more pieces from this
emission than from any other: 24 Pegasi, for example, as contrasted with 5 from the equally large
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym6.jpg) issue.

The hoards of Armenak, Cavalla (../../results?q=name_facet:"Cavalla") (http://www.geonames.org/2278062), and Larissa


(../../results?q=name_facet:"Larissa") (http://nomisma.org/id/larissa_thessaly) tell much the same story. Armenak has 52 Pegasi and
31 with (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym6.jpg). Cavalla (../../results?q=name_facet:"Cavalla")
(http://www.geonames.org/2278062) and Larissa (../../results?q=name_facet:"Larissa") (http://nomisma.org/id/larissa_thessaly) are
more evenly balanced, but in all three hoards the Pegasi coins are definitely superior in condition.12

Although somewhat outside the scope of this study, the early coinage of Lysimachus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Lysimachus")
(http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus) at Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus)
is of interest with respect to mint organization. Even a partial record of the issues points to the activity of two separate workshops.

The first introduces a new control: a half dolphin is combined with the usual lion forepart. Subordinate controls are
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym15.jpg) and (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym26.jpg). When the coinage is
inscribed with the name of Lysimachus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus), this workshop
continues to use the marine symbol but the strange truncated version is replaced by a whole dolphin, accompanied by the lion

numismatics.org/digitallibrary/ark:/53695/nnan49322 27/71
15.12.2019 ANS Digital Library: Alexander's Drachm Mints II
forepart. A long torch takes the place of monograms below the stool. Within the life of obverse J the dolphin is replaced first by
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym29.jpg) and then by (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym28.jpg) cut over
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym29.jpg). At the end of the sequence a drachm and a remarkable stater have the
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym28.jpg) and torch combination and it is noteworthy that this marking is carried over to the
initial gold and silver with Lysimachus’s own types at Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus")
(http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus).
Meanwhile the second workshop follows a more conservative pattern. The forepart of Pegasus, F-H, invariably joins the forepart of the
lion in the left field. When the coinage bears the name of Alexander (../../results?q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great")
(http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii), monograms are inscribed below the stool and these are die linked, with
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym14.jpg) replacing (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym27.jpg) on the later stage of
obverse F. Throughout the sequence with the name of Lysimachus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Lysimachus")
(http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus), including the gold stater, a long torch is the subordinate control.
A striking feature of the Lampsacene Lysimachi is the arrangement of the legend. On the drachms BAZIAEQZ BAΣIΛEΩΣ
ΛYΣIMAXOY runs around inward from the upper right to lower left; on the staters it runs down, the title outward the name inward, to
left and right of Nike.

As noted above, the (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym28.jpg) and torch controls carry over from the Alexander (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii) issues of Lysimachus (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus) to his own coinage. Links with earlier Antigonid strikings are also
present. The monogram (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym14.jpg) is found in Series X, XI, and XVIII while
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym27.jpg) is probably related to the (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym25.jpg) of
Series XVIII. Although (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym15.jpg) is not used for Series XVIII, it is present in Series X-XIV. A
unique drachm of Series XVIII, 534, combines forepart of Pegasus and torch, the dominant control of the second workshop. Both
devices are closely connected with Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus)
and it may be assumed that they are now civic symbols, indicative of the minting authority, rather than magistrates’ markings.

Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) was to become Lysimachus’s major


mint in Asia Minor (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Asia Minor") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia_minor). Its elaborate pattern of mint
activity, as outlined above, indicates that this pre-eminence began immediately after Ipsus.

End Notes
a Seven bronzes from seven obverse and seven reverse dies form part of the early coinage.

b Fractional gold belongs to this issue: one half stater and two quarter staters from two obverse and two reverse dies.

c Subtracting dies transferred from one series to another reduces the total of stater obverses to 102 and of drachm obverses to
384.

2 To the best of my knowledge this unusual rendering of a caduceus is otherwise unknown in hellenistic art.

3 In Newell’s manuscript the goddess is tentatively identified as Hecate but there seems to have been no attempt to represent
more than one head.

4 On a few dies, throughout, the back of a throne is indicated. For the most part the god sits on a simple stool.

5 This is Newell’s identification of the little figure.

6 An indication of the truly impressive size of some issues may be gleaned from a note in Newell’s manuscript, which reads as
follows: “Enquiries made at the U.S. Mint in Philadelphia show that, with modern appliances and machinery, an average of
400,000 dimes (a silver coin of about the weight and surface area of the Alexander drachm) can be secured from a single pair
of dies before the appearance of fractures or other damage. Ancient dies may have been less hard (a point which is not
susceptible to proof) but, on the other hand, blanks were softer as the silver used was purer than at the present day. As in
ancient times the dies were not subjected to an even pressure but were pounded with a hammer, they may for this reason have
given out sooner than a modern die (especially that used for the reverse) would. Even taking this into consideration, we ought
to be willing to admit that an average of some 200,000 drachms to a single obverse die would not have been an impossibility.”
Reducing the total even further, to 100,000 drachms, still amounts to a very substantial quantity of coinage.

7 The Athens (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Athens") (http://nomisma.org/id/athens) coin has a lion’s head instead of a


forepart.

8 Cf. 314-17 and 357 with Kl and 360-61 with (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym18.jpg)

9 That Mouse without monogram follows Herm is established by the shared obverse die. No. 419 is the later stage with a die
break from the forehead and deterioration around the eye and over the forehead.

10 This vital link was discovered by Hyla Troxell.

11 As noted in Sardes and Miletus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Miletus") (http://nomisma.org/id/miletus) , p. 87, n. 83.

12 One need only compare 249a, 260, 280c, and 281b on Plate 10 with 499a, 510a, 516, 528a, 530, and 532 on Plate 17.

CHRONOLOGY
Even a glance at the synopsis shows such a variation in the size of the issues as to suggest that this is not an orderly progression of
annual emissions but a coinage that may at times be the output of a single year and at others cover a longer period of time. Taking the
first nine strikings as a group, Series V, VI, and IX are disproportionately large and almost certainly each extended over several years;
the other issues are in all probability annual although in the case of the first four, production may have been limited to less than a full
year.

Within the early sequence a firm date is provided by Series IX, the last issue to bear the name of Philip, which cannot be later than
317 when Arrhidaeus was assassinated. Three earlier series (VI-VIII) include posthumous Philip II staters. These seem clearly to be
associated with the joint regency, the coinage of the father serving to bolster the position of the son.16 Allowing two years for series IX
and another two for Series VI takes the coinage back to 323 when Alexander (../../results?q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great")
(http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii) died. Series V must surely be the output of at least two years (325/4 and 324/3) and this is the
time when a considerable amount of money would have been needed to reimburse the mercenaries being sent home from Asia.17 It
should be noted, too, that drachms of Series V and VI in very fresh condition were included in the crucial Asia Minor (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Asia Minor") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia_minor) 1964 Hoard, securely dated to ca. 321 B.C.

There can be less certainty with regard to the chronology of Series I-IV. Baldwin 18 terminates the autonomous gold of Lampsacus
(../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) ca. 330 B.C. If it was only then that Alexander
(../../results?q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii) designated Lampsacus (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) as a royal mint, the Alexandrine coinage is unlikely to have
started before 329 B.C.
After the death of Philip III (../../results?q=name_facet:"Philip III") (http://nomisma.org/id/philip_iii_arrhidaeus) there is at other mints
an interval without coinage. The situation at Sardes, Miletus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Miletus") (http://nomisma.org/id/miletus),
and Abydus is, as one would expect, paralleled at Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus")
(http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus). No strong central authority existed to formulate fiscal policy until Antigonus succeeded in
establishing his control of Asia Minor (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Asia Minor") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia_minor) ca. 311 B.C.
The following two years produced the large emission of Kl coins, with tetradrachms as well as gold and small silver. This is followed by
somewhat smaller issues and then by the die linked sequence of Series XIV-XVII which would cover two years at most. Finally, there
is the extensive Pegasus issue which links with Lysimachus’s coinage.
It would be interesting to know who was responsible for the Pegasus striking. In the summer of 302 Lysimachus (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus) crossed the Hellespont, landing near Lampsacus (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus). That city threw open its gates (Diod. 20.107) but the powerful
fortress of Abydus, well garrisoned by Antigonid troops, resisted. The arrival of Demetrius turned the tide. Abydus was strengthened
and Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) retaken before the advent of
winter (Diod. 20.111). Lysimachus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus), therefore, could
have held Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) for no longer than five or
six months. He may at that time have started the Pegasus coinage which continued to be struck after his forced retreat. On the other
hand, it seems more likely that Lysimachus (../../results?q=name_facet:"Lysimachus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lysimachus) during his
brief occupation of Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) did not interfere
with a coinage begun by Antigonus. Both men would have realized the importance of abundant financial reserves as they prepared for
the impending struggle which ended at Ipsus.

ABYDUS
ATTRIBUTION
The identification of Abydus as the source of the coinage which follows is less clearly defined than was the case with Lampsacus
(../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus). Throughout there is no symbol which points
unmistakably to Abydus, as the Pegasus forepart on a late issue identifies the Mysian mint. There are, however, links between the two
coinages which strongly suggest geographical proximity. First and most significant, perhaps, are the stylistic similarities, especially
noteworthy in the rendering of the ungainly spread-lap Zeus of tetradrachms from contemporary strikings. This seems to go beyond
mere copying and may well mean that the same die cutter was employed, for a time at least, by the two mints.16 There are also the
two dies used at Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) and another city,
and although one cannot rule out the possibility of transfers to a distant mint, it is surely more probable that neighboring workshops
are involved. It may be pertinent, too, to note that in hoards buried to the north of Asia Minor (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Asia
Minor") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia_minor) and therefore likely to have a major representation of coinages from northern Asia
Minor,17 the dominant mints are Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) and
the city that produced the present coinage.

It is interesting to note that the close connection between the two mints continued at a later period under Antiochus Hierax. In his
study of Seleucid coinage,18 Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward Theodore, 1886-1941")
(http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) publishes an obverse die used at Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus")
 (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) and also at Abydus and mentions other obverse dies from the two cities so related in style as to
have been in all probability cut by the same artist.
Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward Theodore, 1886-1941") (http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) has left no
detailed explanation of his reasons for assigning the issues that follow to Abydus but among his unpublished papers is a notation to
the effect that Abydus was an active autonomous mint and likely to have continued under Alexander (../../results?
q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii) who usually converted autonomous mints into royal ones
when situated in cities of strategic importance. That Abydus was an important fortress is attested by Lysimachus’s attempt to capture it
after his acquisition of Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) in 302 B.C. His
siege failed due to the appearance of Demetrius’s fleet with supplies and reinforcements for the strong garrison of Antigonid troops. It
seems likely that one factor in the struggle to control Abydus was its importance as a productive mint.
It may at this point be appropriate to discuss briefly the symbols found on the coinages since their interpretation has at times been
responsible for mistaken mint attribution. In the middle of the last century Ludwig Müller published his monumental compilation of all
Alexander (../../results?q=name_facet:"Alexander the Great") (http://nomisma.org/id/alexander_iii) issues known to him.19 Many of
these he assigned to specific mints on the basis of distinctive symbols. In the case of posthumous Alexanders from the third century
and later his attributions were substantially correct, but in the case of earlier Alexanders his attributions were often radically revised by
Edward T. Newell’s research. Newell (../../results?q=name_facet:"Newell, Edward Theodore, 1886-1941")
(http://numismatics.org/authority/newell) showed that issues purportedly from different mints were in reality, on the evidence of die
linkage, from the same mints.20

numismatics.org/digitallibrary/ark:/53695/nnan49322 31/71
15.12.2019 ANS Digital Library: Alexander's Drachm Mints II
On the lifetime and early posthumous Alexanders there is rarely any indication of the issuing authority. This is Alexander’s money, as
the legend states: the coinage is not that of the individual cities. There are exceptions: issues of Sidon, Aradus, and Ake clearly
indicate their origin but it is noteworthy that the indication is consistent and not sporadic. Moving north to Asia Minor (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Asia Minor") (http://nomisma.org/id/asia_minor) and Macedonia (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Macedonia")
 (http://nomisma.org/id/macedonia), one finds occasional evidence of mint or regional identification. The gold of Miletus, and
originally the gold alone, has a small bipennis consistently added to the major control. On later issues, from the end of the fourth
century on, the bipennis is always present. At Amphipolis there is no indication of the issuing mint or early issues, but from the time of
Cassander the repeated appearance of a torch is probably a mint identification. At Lampsacus (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) the forepart of Pegasus appears as a mint mark but only at
the very end of the century, to be carried over to Lysimachus’s strikings.

The important point, with regard to the mints of Asia Minor and Macedon, is that when a distinctive mint mark appears it is usually
chronologically late and always consistently used. It makes no sense to suppose that a mint would apply a civic symbol on an isolated
striking and then abandon it. The Pegasus protome on the second issue at Abydus, which is linked to a long sequence bearing quite
different symbols, does not place the emission at Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus")
(http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus). At most it means that whoever was responsible for selecting the control symbols had some
connection with Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) which influenced his
choice in this instance.21

End Notes
16 This distinctive style in its exaggerated form does not appear elsewhere. There is a somewhat similar Zeus on an occasional
die from late issues at Sardes but the resemblance is not close enough to suggest anything more than one engraver influenced
by the work of another.

This first section of the coinage begins in the lifetime of Alexander with the transfer of an obverse die from Lampsacus ca. 325 B.C.
and ends with the death of Philip III in 317 B.C. The material here assembled provides no link between the first issue and those that
follow but subsequent strikings are united in a close pattern of transferred dies:26

Fractional gold is probably to be associated with Series VII and VIII. Staters of the earlier issue use both pedum and horse’s leg as
secondary controls and this is the only appearance of the pedum. On the rare staters of Series VIII the horse’s leg is the primary
control.
A few staters with the name of Alexander are struck in Series I and II and the type reappears only toward the end of the sequence in
Series p>A=""IX and XI. Series X and XI contain staters with the name of Philip III. Stylistic development is in accord with that of the
Alexander coinage as a whole. The tight corkscrew curls of Athena’s hair are replaced in Series XI by locks falling loosely over the
neck. On three dies of the same issue (171, 173, 174) a griffin replaces the traditional serpent decoration on the helmet.27 Within that
issue, too, the standing Nike with vertical stylis gives place to a goddess walking left and occasionally holding the stylis diagonally
across her body. The large pentagram alone in the left field of 157 is either an experiment, quickly abandoned, or a clumsy attempt to
re-use a reverse die of Series X by obliterating the monogram below Nike’s extended arm.
The only staters of Series III-VIII are those with the types of Philip II. Again there is an obverse used at both Lampsacus (154) and
Abydus (101) but there is no die break to establish the sequence of transfer and no obvious reason for it. What is particulary
noteworthy is the abundance of Philip II coinage at both mints in sharp contrast to the absence or scarcity of such strikings at Miletus
and Sardes. If, as suggested elsewhere,28 the posthumous Philips were intended to strengthen Arrhidaeus’s claims to legitimacy, it is
not surprising that they appear so often at the two Asia Minor mints closest to Macedon where Philip’s party was strong.
Early reverses show a treatment of the horses similar to that on the first dies of Lampsacus: rear legs thin and close together and
forelegs in a fan-shaped arrangement. On all later reverses the rear legs are separated and the forelegs paw the air in agitated
motion. In the beginning the head of Apollo is delicately delineated with a smooth rendering of the hair and a wreath of small laurel
leaves. On subsequent obverses the leaves are larger and the hair curls around the crown of the head. Throughout the style is good.
A hallmark of the tetradrachms and drachms of Series I-VII is the awkward spread-lap Zeus of the reverses. By Series VIII this
distinctive style disappears; the god is shown in a relaxed pose with legs crossed.

Series XIV alone has no link with another series but its position in the sequence is supported by the secondary controls that it shares
with adjoining issues.

Another noteworthy issue is Series XVII which is identical in its major control ( (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym62.jpg),
pentagram) with the last emission before the death of Philip III (Series XI). That these are two separate strikings is certain. The Philip
issue is linked at both ends with other series while Series XVII begins the closely joined sequence which ends the coinage. Two of the
secondary controls of Series XI (serpent and cornucopia) continue to be used in Series XVII; two new ones (shell and goat’s head) are
added. With Series XVIII the griffin’s head and the satrap’s head appear for the first time as secondary controls.

Unlike the diversity of major controls which characterizes the earlier sequence, the final issues from Abydus (Series XIV-XX) are
marked by monograms in which the letter M is the dominant element. If these indicate magistrates or moneyers, as is generally
assumed, there was at Abydus a strange concentration of officials whose name began with M.

d Subtracting dies transferred from one series to another reduces the total of stater obverses to 95 and of the drachm obverses
to 254.

21 So, too, the single issue with addorsed horse foreparts, here assigned to Lampsacus (../../results?
q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus), cannot signify Perinthus. An isolated early striking with
youth and fillet, originally assigned to Sicyon because of an apparent connection with bronze issues of that mint, has been
tentatively reassigned to Corinth by Hyla Troxell (“The Peloponnesian Alexanders,“ ANSMN 1971, pp. 51-52) who suggests
that the symbol may indicate nothing more than an official with personal ties to Sicyon.

22 The die moved from Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) to


Abydus. A die break at upper left on the Abydus stater establishes the direction of the transfer.

26 A stater of the Pozzi Collection (Naville 1, Apr. 4, 1921, 840) with monogram and horse’s leg below and a cornucopia in the
exergue was judged a forgery by Naville.

24 The die probably moved from Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus)


to Abydus but there seems no obvious reason for the transfer. Both mints continued to produce Philip II staters although in the
case of Lampsacus (../../results?q=geographic_facet:"Lampsacus") (http://nomisma.org/id/lampsacus) the output is greatly
reduced.

CHRONOLOGY
There can be no doubt as to the contemporaneity of the first issue at Abydus and the
(../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym1.jpg) coinage of Lampsacus, as attested by the transferred die and the identical
representation of the ungainly spread-lap Zeus of the tetradrachm. The Lampsacene striking is dated ca. 325 B.C. and associated with
Alexander’s decision to disband the mercenaries and send them home with their pay withheld, in part at least, until their arrival.34
Lampsacus as a logical debarcation point would have needed a substantial amount of coinage to meet the demand, more it seems
than even its greatly increased activity could supply. A newly opened mint at neighboring Abydus was provided with a stater die from
Lampsacus and its tetradrachm dies may have come from the hand of a Lampsacene engraver.

The date of 325 for the beginning of the Abydus coinage is supported by the evidence of the crucial Asia Minor 1964 Hoard.35 It
contained 32 drachms of Abydus: 8 with Hermes, 20 with Pegasus forepart, 3 with palm tree, and 1 with ΔΥ (the last four from an
obverse die carried over from the Pegasus issue). All coins are in excellent condition and could have circulated for only a short time
before burial ca. 321 B.C. The Saida Hoard was probably buried at about the same time but there is no definitive record of its
contents. It is said to have included examples of the first two issues of Abydus.
After two emissions with only the name of Alexander, Philip II staters appear and continue to be struck for an additional seven issues,
apparently in an attempt to strengthen the validity of Philip Arrhidaeus’s claim to the throne. Toward the end of the joint regency there
are also staters of Alexander type inscribed ΦIΛIΠΠOY. Eleven series are involved but only four or five are substantial strikings. The
first two issues would immediately precede Alexander’s death and the last two probably cover two full years immediately preceding
the assassination of Philip III. During the interval one assumes that the remaining seven issues were emitted as coinage was needed
rather than on an annual basis.

Despite the die linkage between Series XI and XII, I believe that the two issues were separated by about six years. The death of Philip
III ushered in a period of uncertainty during which there was no central authority and hence no monetary direction. This ended at
Lampsacus and Sardes when Antigonus gained firm control ca. 310 B.C. and at that time coinage resumed. The tetradrachm,
heretofore a rare denomination, reappeared and different secondary controls were adopted.

15.12.2019 ANS Digital Library: Alexander's Drachm Mints II
Although it cannot be proved, it is logical to suppose that the overall situation affected Abydus as well as neighboring Lampsacus.
Here, too, one notes a revival of tetradrachm coinage with Series XII and new symbols supplementing the major control marks of this
and subsequent issues. The die linked sequence of Series XV-XX points to continuous production from ca. 307 to the time of
Lysimachus and it is highly probable that Series XII-XIV, although not linked to the later issues, belong with them, filling the gap
between 310 and 307.
It is easy to postulate what happened. After Series XI had been struck there were still at least three dies (173-75) in good condition,
too good to be discarded. These were stored against future needs and when restriking did resume, they were used for Series XII. One
stater die (173) soon wore out and its reverse was transferred to 174, which was still capable of producing the few staters of Series
XIII.
In the summer of 302 Lysimachus crossed the Hellespont, landing near Lampsacus which threw open its gates without resistance
(Diod. 20.107). The powerful fortress of Abydus was besieged but held out, defended as it was by Antigonid troops and supported by
the presence of Demetrius’s fleet. It was only after Ipsus that Lysimachus was able to gain control of the city and use its mint for his
own coinage, die linked to that of the last issue of Abydus in the present catalogue.

This unusual hoard, found at the site of ancient Dorylaeum, consisted of ca. 80 staters, of which all but two were minted at Abydus.

16 Philip III [ (../../media/nnan49322/archive/NS19_sym62.jpg) omitted], cornucopia alone, 142d, 143

All 58 Philip III staters listed here belong to the issue of 319/8 B.C.; the four earlier coins can be dated to the preceding two years.
Presumably this was part of a single large shipment of gold sent to Dorylaeum ca. 317 B.C., probably at the behest of Antigonus who
at that time controlled Hellespontine Phrygia, and buried shortly thereafter.

Newell’s suggested burial date is ca. 305 B.C. but, as noted in Sardes and Miletus, there are coins from Lampsacus, Abydus, and
Sardes which indicate that the deposit was interred ca. 300 at the earliest and probably a few years later.

The burial date in IGCH is given as ca. 305 B.C. If the second Lampsacus drachm was struck ca. 305/4, interment ca. 300 is more
likely.

Other hoards laid away ca. 300 (Yunak through Aphrodisias) have a few identifiable coins of Lampsacus and Abydus.

can scarcely predate 301/300.
