Seleucid Bronze Coinage from the Ödemiş Museum

This study presents 318 bronze Seleucid coins that were acquired by the Ödemiş Museum. The coins date between c. 281 and 190 BCE. Other than Antiochus Hierax every Seleucid ruler’s coinage is represented. Two anomalously large series appear, SC 520–7+537–8 (Antiochus II) and SC 983.6 (Antiochus III). The mint history of Sardis under the Seleucids is elucidated, along with that of Smyrna (?) and Tralles (?). A smaller number of coins appear from the eastern mints of Antiochia, Seleucia ad Tigrim, Susa, and Ecbatana.
