*The present volume of the Catalogue of Greek Coins forms part 

of the series describing the money of Philip and Alexander, and 

, of the successors of Alexander, a series which properly follows 
the civic coinage of Macedon. The volume of Macedon and the 
volumes describing these regal coinages are being simultaneously 
drawn up, and that of the Seleucida.e being first completed is 

now published. It has been prepared under my direction by Mr. 

Percy Gardner of the Department of Coins and Medals.

COINAGE OF THE SELEUCIDAE. 


INTRODUCTION. 


(«) Arrangement. 

As the classification of the Coins of the Kings of Syria presents 
n%nqjous difficulties, and as the present volume proposes several 
new attributions, it has been judged desirable to begin the 
Catalogue with a slight summary of the reasons for the classifi¬ 
cation of* the various series now adopted. 

Such summary must necessarily be imperfect, as the Catalogue 
is limited to the Collection at the British Museum. All other coins, 
however rare and interesting, are passed by in the body of the 
work, and can only be mentioned in this introduction in passing, 
when they throw light on the question of attribution. 

There are seven distinct series, the arrangement of which is 
sufficiently difficult to require a brief dissertation :— 

I. Silver of Antiochus I.-III. 

II. Silver and Copper of Seleucus I.-IV. 

III. Copper of Antiochus I.-III. 

IV. Coins struck by Antiochus III. in Greece. 

Y. Copper of Demetrius I. II. 

VI. Copper of Alexander I. II. 

VII. Copper of last Antiocbi.

INTRODUCTION. 


Ix Silver of Antiochus I.-III. 

During the period which elapsed between the accession of ther 
first of these monarchs and the death of the last,, five princes named. 
Antiochus actually ruled over Syria. For Antiochus Hierax held, 
during many years a practically undisputed sway in Asia Minor, in 
no way acknowledging the authority of his brother Seleucus II., 
with whom indeed he was constantly at war. That he should have 
allowed the money of his brother to be issued or pass current ip 
his dominions is not for a moment to be believed; that he issued 
no money at all, is equally incredible • we have therefore every 
reason to expect to find his coins not among the least numerous 
of those of the Seleucid princes. Also we know, from an inscription, 
found at Seleucia on the Orontes, that a young prince* occupied’, 
the throne for a short period between the death of Seleucus III. 
and the accession of Antiochus III. This prince issued coins, as ‘ 
we shall presently find, under the name of Antiochus. « 

We have good testimony for the fact that Antiochus I. assumed, 
towards the end of his reign, the title Sotert, which he won by a' 
victory over the Gauls. This enables us to identify his coins, for' 
we have pieces with the legend XflTHPoZ! ANTIoXoY, and 
hearing on the obverse the head of an elderly monarch with pinched 
features, .sharp nose, and deep-set eyes (PI. hi. 7). The same 
head appears on coins with the legend BAZIAEQX ANTIoXoY 
(PI. iik 5 * 6 ); and a similar head, younger, but with theusame cast 
of features and general aspect, on a large quantity of coins (PI. ni. 
8, 4). All this class may be set apart as issued by Antiochus I., 
and its separation is made easy by the remarkable deep sinking

of tlie king’s eye, which is unmistakable. Finally, this younger 
head, with long straight nose and very deep eye, is found on certain 
pieces hearing, Herakles seated as reverse type (PI. in. 2). 'These 
seem, to be the earliest coins of Antiochus I., and were probably 
issued during his father’s life, when with Stratonice as a bride 
he received as a kingdom all Asia beyond the Euphrates. On 
inheriting his father’s dominions he would seem to have substituted 
Apollo for Herakles, copying closely the type already adopted by 
Nicocles king of Paphos,* and used by Seleucus on copper coin.f 
It was in the reign of Antiochus II. that the provinces of Parthia 
and Bactria revolted against Seleucid rule, the latter under Diodotus 
and Euthydemus, the former under Arsaces. All of these revolted 
princes struck coins. The type adopted by Arsaces was a warrior 
seated on the Delphic omphalos of Apollo, and holding in out- 
st^ched hand a bow. The type used by Euthydemus was Herakles 
seated on rocks, holding in his r. hand a club. Now the originals 
of both of these types, Herakles seated, and Apollo on his omphalos 
holding out a bow, occur on pieces struck, as the legend shows, by 
a king named Antiochus, and bearing on the obverse the same 
head (PI, v. 8—5). This head resembles that of Antiochus I. in some 
respects, especially in the deep setting of the eye. It is also not 
Unlike the portrait of Demetrius Poliorcetes, who was the maternal 
grandfather of Antiochus II. These seem to be valid reasons for 
assigning to Antiochus II. the two above-mentioned sets of coins. 
And with them will go, of course, other pieces, which have the 
same portrait on the obverse, and on the reverse Apolltf holding 
arrow and bow as on the coins of Antiochus I. (PI. v. 1). The 
type used by the revolted Diodotus is Zeus thundering to 1., holding 
the aegis over his 1. arm. It is remarkable that the same type

t PI. II. 5.

INTRODUCTION. 


occurs on coins which bear the name of Antiochus, and which must 
needs have been issued under authority of Antiochus II. (PI. v. 7). 
But it is noteworthy that the portrait on these pieces is very different 
from that on the already-mentioned coins of Antiochus; it is, in 
fact, absolutely identical with the head on Diodotus’ coins, which we 
have every reason to suppose to be that of Diodotus himself. These 
coins then, with the portrait of Diodotus and the name of Antiochus, 
were probably issued immediately before Diodotus’ revolt, and repre¬ 
sent the time when he was doing his best to supplant his master 
in the eyes of the people. 

That Antiochus Hierax must have issued abundant coin is 
certain; nevertheless it is a matter of some difficulty to separate 
with probability his pieces from those of Antiochus III. But 
there is a large class of coins strongly resembling one another, and 
bearing a portrait closely like that of Seleucus II., the brother.of 
Antiochus Hierax, which may very well have been issued by the 
latter prince (PI. vii. 1-5). That they were not minted by Anti¬ 
ochus the Great is rendered probable by the fact that the border 
on them is formed in every case of dots, and never of a continuous 
filjet, as is usual in his coins, which fillet almost certainly did not 
come into fashion before the death of £eleucus III., on whose 
coins, the attribution of which is fairly certain, there is no in¬ 
stance of its use. The style of work also is better here. Nor 
does the ^portrait at all resemble that which appears on the ascertained 
coins of Antiochus III. These reasons seem sufficient to justify 
us in giving, at least provisionally, the whole class to Hierax. 

That between the death of Seleucus III. and the* accession of 
Antiochus III., a prince named Antiochus reigned for a short time, 
is known from the testimony of the above-mentioned inscription of 
Seleucia.* That .this prince was a youthful son of Seleucus is by 


* Boeckh, No. 4458. Droysen, II., p. 521.

far most probable, for none but a son of bis deceased brother could 
have intervened between the able and ambitious Antiochus III. and 
the throne. As, however, Seleucus died at the age of less than twenty- 
three" this son must have been quite a young child, not more than six 
years old. Now we have a set of coins with the name of Antiochus, 
and bearing the. portrait of a child of about that age (PL vn. 1, 2), 
a portrait more childish than that of Antiochus V., who was during 
his reign 9-11 years old (PI. xni. 11-14), and even than that of 
Antiochus VI., who was about 6-8 years of age (PI. xix.). It is 
impossible to accept Sestini’s attribution of these pieces to Anti¬ 
ochus III., who was some twenty years old when he began to reign ; 
and as the period of their issue is fairly certain, they must belong to 
the young son of Seleucus III. 

The coins of Antiochus the Great are very numerous, and present 
ns* with great variety, as indeed might have been expected from 
the length of his reign and the extent of his dominions. To separate 
them from the money of his successors is easy, the portraits of all 
subsequent Antiochi being quite ascertained. Among his prede¬ 
cessors, Hierax alone issued coins which may be confused with his. 
The standard portrait of Antiochus III. is given us by dated coins 
of Phoenicia (PI. ix. 8). ' The same head or one not strikingly dis¬ 
similar is found on a quantity of coins with that peculiar border 
called the fillet border, which was not used by Seleucus III. or his 
predecessors, but was used by the young Antiochus, his son, and by 
subsequent kings. Such coins have sometimes as type an # elephant 
(PI. ix. 1, 2), sometimes Apollo seated on the omphalos (PI. vin. 7). 
The portrait on them is, I think, always of the same king, although 
there is much variety; that this portrait is of Antiochus III. is for 
the above reasons certain, and I think undisputed. 

This same portrait does, however, appear on many pieces which 
have the ordinary dotted border (PI. vin. 8-5), and which were 
doubtless also issued by Antiochus III. The difficulty is that 


c 



Xviii INTRODUCTION. 

there are some coins with dotted border bearing a head almost 
as closely resembling that of Hierax as that of Antiochus the Great; 
in fact, between tie two (p. 26). These are mostly^ of somewhat 
barbarous work and small pretensions to exact portraiture. I have 
given them rather to Antiochus III. because of the length of his 
reign, and the magnitude alike of his dominions and his expeditions : 
but it must be understood that it is not possible to draw a hard 
and fast line in the matter. 


II. Silver and Copper of Seleucus I.-IY. 

The silver of the first four kings bearing the name of Seleucus 
presents no great difficulty to the arranger. The portrait of 
Seleucus I., when it appears on his coins, is either helmeted or 
homed* and bears marks so evident of belonging to the age of 
Alexander as to leave no doubt in its attribution. This king issued, 
silver coin without his portrait, probably quite ' in the early part 
of his reign. The likeness of Seleucus II. is fixed for us by his 
bearded portrait, the name Pogon being applied to him by the 
historian Polybius* (PI. vi. 14). The reverse type of the Bilver 
coins hearing this portrait is a standing Apollo, and a standing Apollo 
appearing on the reverse of some other coins issued by a Seleucus 
who is represented as unbearded (PI. vi. 1, 2), we naturally examine 
this unbearded portrait to see if the head be the same asi^tlie bearded 
head. The result of such a scrutiny is to satisfy one of the identity 
of the two portraits, the bearded being taken somewhat later in life. 
The portrait of Seleucus IV. is given us by dated coins.f Only one 
portrait of a Seleucus remains: this must needs be of Seleucus III.

/ 

(PI.>vm.). It represents a young man of very weak and undecided 
character, which is just the character attiibuted .by history to the 
prince in question. 1 

The attribution of the silver coin being thus certain, and -I think 
undisputed, it is easy to classify such of the copper coin as bears 
a portrait. This is the case only with several pieces of Seleucus II. 
(PI. vi. 3-5). The attribution of the copper coin without portrait 
remains to be examined. 

* In the earlier part of his reign Seleucus I. issued money of gold 
and silver, with the types of Alexander the Great. Closely con¬ 
nected with these issues are certain copper coins, which must clearly 
he given to the same period. The types of these are sometimes 
taken from the gold; i.e. on the obverse, head of Pallas, on the 
reverse, Nike (Pi. n. 3, 4) ; sometimes from the silver, as in the 
case of a remarkable coin which presents, on the obverse', the head 
of young Herakles, on the reverse, Apollo seated on the omphalos 
(PI. II. 5). This latter coin brings before us for the first time the 
reverse type adopted by Seleucus’ son Antiochus as the arms of the 
dynasty. Seleucus used the type rarely; but it seems impossible . 
m view of the fabric and obverse type of this coin to give it to a later 
Seleucus, especially as oh the coin certainly struck by the second 
prince of the name, Apollo always stands (PI. VI.). 

The remaining coins given to Seleucus I. are attributed partly 
on the ground of type, partly on that of fabric. On gold coins 
undoubtedly issued by this king, and bearing his portrait, the 
reverse type consists of a horse’s head with bull’s horns, and an 
anchor (PI. i. 6), We do not know, in the case of the horse’s head, ^ 
cither the meaning of the type (with certainty) or the special con¬ 
nection with Seleucus; but as regards the anchor, it is certainly 
taken from the device of his signet. These two objects, anchor and 
horse’s head, mark out as belonging to Seleucus a quantity of copper 
coin on which they appear, apart or together (PI. n. 6-9), in

INTRODUCTION. 


connection sometimes with the figure of an elephant (PI. H. 7), 
sometimes with the heads of the Dioscuri (PI. n. 8). The elephant 
also appears largely on' the silver coin of this king (PI. I. 7-10), 
reminding us that he made war on Sandracottus or Chandra Gupta, 
an Indian king, and exacted from him, as the price of peace, five 
hundred elephants, of which he made excellent use in his subsequent 
wars. This seems a good reason of giving also to Seleucus I. the 
coins with an elephant’s head for reverse, and on obverse the heads 
of the Dioscuri (PI. u. 10), a type which we have already met. 
Again, the- type of Nike crowning a trophy belongs, when it occurs 
on copper (PI. ii. 11), just as when it occurs on silver (PI. i. 11-13), 
•to Seleucus I., and with it goes the kindred representation of Nike 
crowning a warrior, which appears on the reverse of pieces, on the 
obverse of which is a head of Apollo full faoe (PI. n. 12) : also 
very beautiful coins (PI. xxviii. 1) having on the obverse a full-face 
head of Dionysus, and on the roverse a warrior, probably Seleucus 
himself, spearing a fallen foe. The full-face representations do not 
seem to have persisted in this series beyond the middle of the third 
century B.c. 

There is another type, which, on the analogy of the silver, I 
would attribute to Nicator, This is Athene Alkis, who appears on 
his silver pieces fighting from a chariot of elephants (PI. i. 7—10). 
This type seems to be in a special degree Macedonian,* and is 
perhaps peculiar "to those who claimed the Macedonian throne, as 
Seleucus did in his later years. On copper coins Athene appears 
on foot, sometimes the Seleucid anchor being in the field^ on pieces 
the obverse of which bears a somewhat early head of Apollo 
(PI. ii. 13). 

Thero is yet one type on copper money which I give to Nicator, 
although it does not, I think, occur on his coins in precious metal.

This is the humped bull, butting. There is a well-known story 
that Seleucus, alone and unarmed, stopped a furious bull which 
escaped from the altar as Alexander was sacrificing. We may 
see ill the coin an allusion to this story, or we may prefer, 
regarding rather the Indian type of the bull, to see a reference to 
the Indian victories of the King. In any case, style and fabric fully 
justify us in placing the copper coin with this reverse here; that is 
to say, some of it—all which bears on the obverse a head of Medusa 
(f*l. n. 14), and all which has on the obverse an early head of 
Apollo, with long streaming hair (PI. n. 15). The variety with 
head of Apollo in which the hair is tied in a knot cannot, as we 
shall presently see, be placed earlier than Seleucus II. (PI. vi. 10).* 
The earlier head appears also on coins, best placed here, which have 
on the reverse a tripod (PI. h. 16). 

The copper of Seleucus II. which bears his unbearded portrait 
and is of undoubted attribution, presents us with three types at 
least—(1) Apollo standing, holding arrow and how (PI. vr. 3) ; 
.(2) an elephant with driver on neck (PI. vi. 4); (8) a horse sur¬ 
mounted by the stars of the Dioscuri (PI. vi. 5). Jt also furnishes 
us with notions as to the style to be expected, and the monograms 
used during his reign. Of the already-mentioned types, two, Apollo 
standing (PI. vi. 6) and the Elephant (PI. vi. 8) occur on copper 
pieces having on the obverse a head of Pallas in a close-fitting 
helmet, a type new to the series, and quite in accord with what we 
should expect as to style. The standing Apollo also occurs in con¬ 
nection with a head of Artemis (PI. vi. 7) and a head of Herakles 
(PI. Xxviii, 7). History does not inform us why Seleucus II. should 
have specially adopted the Dioscuri as his patron deities, or placed 
their effigies on his coins. Nevertheless, considerations of .style, 
oombined with the fact that on certain coins of this king we find the 
Unmistakable stars of the Dioscuri (PI. vi. 5), justify us in placing 
here the coins which bear on the reverse the figures of Castor and 



xxii INTRODUCTION. 

Pollux, and on the obverse a head of Apollo, the hair gathered in a 

I » 

knot behind (PL n, 9), as well as those which have the heads of the 
Dioscuri on one side and Nike on the other (PI. vi. 11). The same 
head of Apollo also appears on a series of pieces which have on the 
other side a gibbous bull, either butting (PL vi. 10) or at rest 
(Pl. vi. 12, 13), a type already alluded to. This head shows a 
revival of the archaic manner of representing Apollo, a revival which 
we know to have taken place about the middle of the third century 
b.o., at the time when Ptolemy II. was encouraging at Alexandria 
every form of the study and love'- of the antique in literature. It 
may be added that on one of the pieces which represent a bull 
butting we find the same monogram ^ (Pl. vi. 10) which is found 
on the certain coins of Seleucus H. 

The coins which bear the portrait of Seleucus II. bearded are 
unmistakable (Pl. vi. 15, 16). 

With Seleucus III. we again find the type of the seated Apollo, 
which type, for some reason unknown to us, Callinicus seems to 
have avoided, and observe a certain degradation of style. On the 
obverse of the pieces having this type we find (1) a head of Apollo 
of a peculiar type, and by no means unlike the monarch himself 
(Pl. vn. 8); (2) a head of Artemis, of a decidedly ruder style than 
that which appears on the coin of Callinicus (PL vn. 10). Besides 
these small pieces, I give to Seleucus III. a series of coins which 
have on the reverse a tripod, and on the obverse a head of Apollo of 
a feminine type (Pl. vn. 9) strikingly similar to that on the money of 
Molon, whose reign was but two or three years later (Pl. x. 2). 

To Seleucus IV. I attribute a series of coins with serrated edge, 
bearing various types (Pl. x. 9-13). That this peculiar fabric was em¬ 
ployed thus early we are sure, because there exists coin of the King 
with serrated edge and the dates A.s. 137, 138* ; but it was apparently

Dot employed by Antiochus HI., and was not introduced in Macedon 
and Italy before the middle of the second century b.o. These serrated 

. i » 1 

coins, therefore, are not likely to have been issued by a previous king. 
Nor can they have been issued by a later king. Seleucus V. had a 
very brief reign, and we have every reason to suppose that he issued 
no coin; in the time of Seleucus VI. the fabric had passed out of 
use. We have good reason, then, to attribute them to Seleucus IV., 
and with them go certain pieces with flat and partly serrated edge - 
(H. x. 8), having on the obverse an archaistic head of Apollo similar 
to that on the fully-serrated coins. 


HI. —Copper of Antiochus I.-in., &c. 

Our distribution of the copper issued by-the early Antiochi is 
greatly facilitated by the fact that Antiochus I. and III. as well as 
Hierax placed their portraits on some of their pieces. Nevertheless, 
as Antiochi were reigning almost incessantly in Syria during the first 
century and a half of Seleucid dominion, we miss in this case those 
breaks and intermediate coinages which help us so much in classify¬ 
ing. Hence there are many coins which cannot be assigned with 
strong probability to any one prince. In such cases I have merely 
tried to fix their limits of time as narrowly as I could, without 
indulging in baseless conjecture. 

The clue to the ascertainment of that part of the copper coin of 
Antiochus I. which does not bear his effigy is to be found in the wars 
w bich he waged against Antigonus Gonatas, during which, though 
bistory is almost silent about them, we may be reasonably sure that 
■b® laid claim to the throne of Macedon. Traces of such claim 
certainly appear on coins which I would attribute to him. Of these 
the types are as follows :—(1) Macedonian shield; on the boss, 
anchor; Rev., Horned elephant (PI. iv. 7, 8). (2) Head of Zeus; 



XXIV 


INTRODUCTION. 


Rev., Thunderbolt (PI. iv. 14, 15). (3) Head of Apollo.; Rev.,. 

Tripod (PI. iv. 17). That all these pieces were issued in one region 
and at one time appears alike from the uniformity of the fabric and 
from the occurrence throughout the series of the same monograms, 
PI and foE, and the same symbols, the club, the bow, and the 
jaw-bone of a boar. The fabric appears to be Macedonian; some 
of the types are certainly so—for instance, the Macedonian shield, 
which is used as a type by the competitors of Antiochus for the 
Macedonian throne, Antigonus Gonatas and Pyrrhus. The type of 
the horned elephant indicates a period close to that of Seleucus, 
whose elephants are also horned, while those of all succeeding kings 
are without horns. We have good reasons, then, for supposing the 
whole series to have been issued by Antiochus I., possibly in 
Europe, certainly while he was an aspirant to the Macedonian 
throne. To the same period belong his coins with the type 
of Athene Alkis (PI. iv. 9), also quite a Macedonian type. 
Further, it is reasonable to give to Antiochus I. the coins which 
continue his father Seleucus’ types, such as Nike erecting a trophy 
(PI. iv. 10), as well as other pieces which present us with full-face 
heads of Apollo or Pallas of a style indicating the earlier part of the 
third century ,B.c. (PI. iv. 11-13), and in addition a few coins with 
seated Apollo on the reverse and head of Apollo on the obverse 
(PI. iv. 16), chiefly in view of the style of the last-mentioned head. 

To Antiochus II. I would give a series of coins which bear, on the 
obverse, a head of Apollo of a somewhat later type than appears on 
the money of the first Antiochus, but with hair streaming, not 
rolled, as on the coins of Seleucus II., on the reverse a tripod, 
beneath which the Seleucid anchor (PI. v. 8, 9). These pieces are 
copied from those (already mentioned) of Antiochus I. (PI. iv. 17). 
The attribution to Antiochus Theos must of course remain doubtful; 
we might almost as well give them to Hierax, but that they shew 
small resemblance to those coins of the latter which bear his por-

trait (PI. vii. 4, 5). It would seem that the first two kings of the 
Seleucid line issued copper money in such quantities as to do away 
with’ the necessity of large issues by their successors; or possibly 
these latter used the old dies. It seems almost certain that between 
Antiochus I. and III. only Seleucus II. issued plentiful copper 
coin. Similarly, at a later period, Philippus, whose silver money 
la extremely plentiful, does not seem to have struck at all in 
copper. 

The copper money of Antiochus m. is in some instances dated, 
ft nd usually has his portrait. That portrait wears sometimes the 
re gal diadem (PI. rx. 8-8), sometimes the laurel-wreath of Apollo 
(PI. IX. 9-11). There are, however, a few pieces without portrait, 
which seems to have been issued by him, viz.: (1) Head of Apollo 
with formal curls; Rev., Apollo- standing, leaning on tripod 
, (PI- ix. 14). (2) Same; Rev., Elephant (PI. ix. 12). (3) Head 

°f Apollo, hair rolled; Rev., Elephant (PI. ix. 13). The head of 
Apollo of classes (1) and (2) is exactly like that on the coins of 
Achaeus, who revolted against Antiochus HI., and was put down 
hy him (PI. x. 2). The elephant is a well-known type of Anti¬ 
ochus III., and no doubt embodies an allusion to his oriental ex¬ 
peditions. It will be observed that the money of Antiochus III. 
which does not bear his portrait is very small; many kings, 
ancient and modern, have allowed small change to appear without 
their effigy. 

The attribution of the coins which have the legend BAXIAEHX 
ANTloXoy and a serrated edge is difficult (PI. xni. 9, 10), and 
has formerly been despaired of. They do not belong to the first 
three Antiochi, for this peculiar fabric was not introduced so early, 
n ° r do they belong to Antiochus VI., all of whose numerous coins 
hear his portrait, Dionysiac types, and the letters TPY or XTA. 
'h'ho question remains between Antiochus IV. or V. and Anti- 
ochug VII. Of these two attributions I have preferred the former.

because all the types, (1) Head of Demeter; Rev., Elephant’s 
head (PI. xm. 9), (2) Head of Apollo ; Rev., Apollo seated 
(PI. xxii. 10), are found on the serrated coins of Seleucus IV. 
(PI. x. 10-13), the immediate predecessor of Antiochus IV.; and 
because neither type nor fabric corresponds with those of Anti¬ 
ochus VII. or his contemporaries. Between Antiochus IV. and his 
son it is impossible to decide. 


IV.— Coins of Antiochus III. struck in Greece. 

The attribution to Antiochus III. of the coins described on page 
29 (PI. xxviii. 2—4), struck respectively at Carystus and in Aetolia, is 
new, and requires a few words of justification. That the two sets 
of coins were issued by the same prince appears not merely from the 
general similarity of portrait, which is more observable in a piece 
published by Dr. Imhoof-Blumer,* and preserved at the Hague, but 
also from the peculiar character of the wreath on the king’s head, 
which is in both cases intertwined with a diadem. The contem¬ 
poraries of Antiochus, Attalus I. of Pergamum, and Ptolemy IV. 
of Egypt, also wear wreaths, the former of laurel, the latter of ivy, 
in each case similarly Intertwined. That the prince who struck 
coins at Carystus and in Aetolia was Antiochus III. appears from 
historical considerations. Antiochus was in b.o. 192 elected Strat- 
egos, or Praetor, of the Aetolian League with absolute powers, and 
passed the winter of the same year at ChaTcis in Euboea, where in 
honour of his marriage with a Chalcidian lady he held splendid 
games, to which we may find allusion in the chariot of the reverse of 
the Carystian coin, as well as in the oak-wreath on the head of 
Antiochus himself.

V.— Copper of Dehetrius I. II. 

The copper pieces of these two princes can be assigned in most 
cases on good grounds ; in almost all cases they bear either portrait, 
date, or title. The exception is a set of coins with serrated edge, 
which may be thus described in order of magnitude :—(1) Head of 
Apollo; Rev., Tripod (PI. xxi. 13). (2) Head of Artemis; Rev., 

Bow and quiver (PI. xxi. 14). (3) Horse’s head; Rev., Elephant’s 

head (PI. xiv. 15): of these three classes we may at once claim the 
last for Demetrius I., as animal types are usual on his coins 
(PI. xrv. 12-14), and do not occur on those of Nicator. The other 
two classes present us no peculiarity which should enable us to give 
them to either prince; they must therefore remain doubtful. 


VI.— Copper of Alexander I. II. 

There are three classes of coins which bear the name of Alexander, 
hut neither a portrait nor a date by which they might be identified. 
Of these, two have smooth edge (1) Head of Zeus; Rev., Pallas 
standing, in wreath (PI. xvi. 12); (2) Head of young Dionysus ; 
Bev., Elephant (PI. xvi. 13). The third has serrated edge. Head of 
young Dionysus; Rev., Fortune (PI. xxn. 15). That the first type 
belongs to Alexander I. is rendered certain by the occurrence of a 
silver coin with an almost exactly similar head of Zeus, which bears 
a date in his reign (PI. xvi. 1). The second class bears the mono¬ 
gram /^i lj which is of constant occurrence on the coins of Alexander I. 
The third type is marked by an aplustre, one of the most usual 
°f adjuncts on the coins of Alexander Zobina, but scarcely, if ever.

used on those of Alexander Bala. Perhaps, however, it will ho 
thought' a violent proceeding to give class (2) to Bala, and class (3) 
to Zebina, when both have the same obverse type, the'young head 
of Dionysus. - But it should be observed that the two Alexanders 
use the same types in many cases, Zebina copying’ Bala; only, on 
comparing similar coins of the two series, a great difference of fabric 
will be seen, the coin of Zebina being far rougher and of worse 
fabric; and this difference exactly will appear in comparing the two 
heads of Dionysus before us; that which I suppose to have ap¬ 
peared under Zebina being ruder and less neat by far. 


VII.— Copper of Last Antiochi. 

Antiochus XII., called by the historians Dionysus, claimed the 
throne of Syria as heir of Grypus, after his brother’s death. He 
seems to have ruled for a few years, about b.c. 89-84, and to have 
fallen in battle against Aretas, King of Damascus. Antiochus XIII., 
’ called Asiaticus, established himself in a few cities of Syria after 
•Tigranes had Been driven from the throne, B.c. 69, but was soon put 
down by Pompeius. 

Now the title Dionysus, above quoted, as well as the unmistakable 
indications of style, point out to us as the coins of Antiochus XII. 
certain pieces which bear a portrait and the legend BAXIAEX1Z 
ANTloXoV *AloNYZoY EnW>ANoYZ <J>IAoriAToPoX 
KAAAINIKOY (PI. xxvn. 3). So far there is no dispute. But 
there are other coins with the same legend, the word AloNYXoY 
only being omitted, which some^ would attribute to Asiaticus 
(PI. xxvii. 1, 2, 4). There can, however, be little doubt that these

coins also were issued by Dionysus, for three reasons: (1) Through¬ 
out the Seleucid series it is a custom with the kings to put on 
their’ 'coins sometimes more, sometimes fewer, of their titles; in¬ 
stances would he superfluous; (2) The portrait on the coins with 
the word AlONYZoY is very much like that on the coins where 
that word is absent; (8) Exactly the same type, Zeus standing, 
1S common to the two sets. If Asiaticus issued coins, which is 
doubtful, they have not come down to us. 


(0) Mints. 

• 

The assignment of coins of the Seleucidae to mint-cities is a 
matter of extreme difficulty in many cases. In the present volume 
such assignment has been attempted but seldom, only where it 
could be made with great probability. In the case of monograms, 
account has been taken of their position in the field or the exergue, 
not * es8 than of the elements of which they are formed. 

(1) Coins of Phoenicia .—In the mint of Tyre, the well-known 
monogram of the city, on a club, was used as a distinguishing 
mark; in the mint of Sido'n usually the letters ZIAI2, in conjunc¬ 
tion either with the aplustre, or with IEP[AZ] AZY[AOY], Both 
these mint-marks are unmistakable. For Ascalon we have AZ in 
conjunction with the figure of a dove, the bird sacred to Derceto, the 
goddess of Ascalon. In one or two cases, following Muller,* I have 
Ve ntured, though with much diffidence, to give to Ascalon coins 
hearing the letters AZK merely, without accompanying symbol. 
'The mint-mark of Berytus is a trident, accompanied on coins both of

Alexander I. and Demetrius II. by the monogram of obscure 
meaning. The monogram I have given to the mint Sycamina, 
not universally, but only as occurring in the short space of B.o. 126- 

* 112 on coins mostly with Phoenician types minted by Cleopatra, 
Antiochus VilL, and Antiochus IX. By the position of the mono- 

* gram on the coins it is rendered all but certain that it is intended to 
stand for the name of-a city, and the fabric proves that this city was 
situate on the,Syrian sea-coast; no such city but Sycamina begins 
with the letters J£Y. Also it is recorded that in the year b.c. 103 
Ptolemy Lathyrus landed at the port of Sycamina with 30,000 men, 
which proves the city to have been of some importance about the 
time at which the Syrian coins were struck. The monograms pi 
ff|, when they occur on the coins of the Ptolemies, are supposed 
to indicate the mint of Ptolemais, the older Ace, and I have accepted 
the attribution in describing coins of Antiochus V., Demetrius I., 
and Alexander I. 

(2) Corns of Asia Minor .—The earlier Seleucidae struck largely 
in the north of Asia Minor, introducing, according to the system 
followed ,in the case of coins issued bearing the name of Alexander,' 
the type of the mint-city as a symbol or accessory in the field, while 
the main type belonged to the King. Thus we find on the money 
of Antiochus II. and Hierax (pp. 14, 21) as accessories the torch' 11 
of Cyzicus in conjunction in. one case with an eagle, in another 
with a half sea-horse. The eagle might seem to indicate Abydos, 
the sea-horse tampsacus, and both Lampsacus and Abydos are in the 
neighbourhood of Cyzicus, and may have had a monetary convention 
with that famous mint. We find on the money of Antiochus II. a 
feeding horse in the exergue (p. 14). The fabric being that of the 
Troad, this accessory induces us to give the pieces in question to 

* « Long flambeau brulunt ” (Muller, Nurn. d’Alexandre le Grand), p. 233. 



INTRODUCTION.

Alexandria Troas. From the coins with the feeding horse in the 
exer gue we must, however, carefully distinguish those, of quite 
another fabric, whereon the feeding horse is standing beside the 
ODQ phalos of Apollo. The latter set are given by Miiller to Larissa 
lQ ‘Via, an attribution which. I shall presently discuss. Again we 
on the money of Antiochus III., as accessories two Asiatic 
Goddesses with local cult (p. 25), the Athene of Ilium and the Deity 
°f Myra, and so are able to class the pieces thus distinguished to the 
^o cities mentioned. Once more, it seems reasonable to attribute 
to Tarsus all coins bearing as reverse-type the remarkable structure 
commonly called the tomb of Sardanapalus (PI. xxi. 6, 7, xxrv. 8, 
Xxviii. 8), but far more probably representing the funeral pyre 
aunually erected* by the people of Tarsus in honour of the god 
Stindon, according to Phoenician tradition and usage.+ This pyre, 
Unmistakable in its details, appears on the municipal coins of 
rtm s; and it is unlikely that a type so peculiar would occur 
elsewhere. To Salamis in Cyprus I have given a coin of Antiochus 
■ (P- 111) which seems to interrupt the Ptolemaic series of Cyprus, 
aa d bears the symbol there used, the owl. 


(3) Corns of Syria and the East. —I have already mentioned a 
Mrge class of coins, existing both in silver and copper, whereon a 
feeding horse appears standing beside the omphalos on which Apollo 
seated (pp. 9—11). These pieces were issued by the earlier 
Seleucid kings, and M. Muller claims them for the mint of Larissa 
Vial. The reason which prevents me from accepting this attri- 
*°u is the following : all the silver and-copper coins of this class

in the British Museum, so far as their source can be traced, seem to 
have been brought from Media, from the neighbourhood of the city 
of Ecbatana. Silver coins are often dug up far fronr their place of 
mintage, but copper coins very seldom; whence it appears likely 
that the whole class was issued in the far East, perhaps in the 
neighbourhood of the Nisaean Plains, where were the huge herds of 
horses belonging to the Eastern kings. A coin of’Antiochus VII., 
bearing as type a Uly (PI. xx. 14), I have given to Jerusalem, in 
accordance with the conjecture of M. de Saulcy. * 

One is very strongly tempted to discover the names of mints in 
many of the monograms which occur so constantly on coins of the 
Seleucidae. This temptation has to be resisted for several reasons. 
If we were quite sure that these monograms contained the names of 
cities, yet a monogram is a thing so obscure and bo ambiguous that 
we should despair of their tn^e solution. But we are not sure of 
this. On the contrary, it is almost certain that the large majority 
of monograms, as they do not recur under successive reigns, do not 
represent places. Of the minority, which do so recur, some may 
probably stand for the names of mints; but the indications they 
offer are so slight that the utmost caution is required in interpreting 
them. The monogram £ [AIL for instance, often recurs, but it 
is impossible to say, if it stand for a city, for which of all the Syrian 
cities beginning in the Bame way it stands. With regard to one 
group of coins only I have ventured on a set of readings. These 
are tetradrachms, minted by Demetrius I., and of a uniform 
character.t In the field of them, to the left,‘is invariably the 
monogram H occurring io conjunction with ( a | j /{sj, aQ( j a 
date. What F3 may signify I know not, but it does not seem 
presumptuous to see in the other three monograms the names of 
Apamea, Antioch, and Heraclea; of which cities the two former

were two of the most important in Syria; the third was a sea-port of 
some size in the neighbourhood of Laodicea ad Mare. These same 
monograms, when occurring on other coins of Demetrius and of 
Alexander I., I have felt justified in interpreting in the same way; 

in particular would seem to have been the recognized abridg¬ 
ment of the name of Antioch. On the coins of Deipetrius II. 
„(pp. 61-2) this monogram*is preceded by M, which probably 
stands for the title Metropolis, a title most appropriate to the city 
of Antioch. On other coins of Demetrius I. R seems to Btand for 
Gaza. 

By the letters TPV and XT A, which continually occur on the 
coins of Antiochus VI., mints are not signified. - TPY probably 
stands for Tryphon, and XT A for Staphylus, a name which Try- 
phon may perhaps have assumed as friend and -guardian of the 
young Dionysus, borrowing the nam^from the King of Assyria who 
received the god at his court.*
