Numismatica Antiqua 2
Within the ensemble constituted by provincial coinage, imperial Greek coins from the Roman East occupy a predominant place. In that regard, their production in Pontus’ cities is interesting and some works already were conducted by Z. Çizmeli on Neocaesarea, by M. Amandry and B. Rémy on Sebastopolis and Comana, and by Fr. Wojan on Cerasus and Trebizond. Others are in the works: M. Amandry, B. Rémy and I are studying Zela’s mint and Fr. Brenier started a PhD on Amastris’ mint in Paphlagonia.
This research work on Amaseia’s mint thus completes this list and is part of a larger project. I have been submitted this subject in July 1998 by B. Rémy and M. Amandry. It was at first a postgraduate diploma (DEA), mainly focused on the making of the catalogue of Amaseia’s coins preserved in the Cabinet des Médailles in Paris, but it turned into a PhD thesis on Amaseia’s mint that was defended in Grenoble in December 2002 and which this book is a reworked and updated version of. The thesis should have initially included a part dedicated to travellers, epigraphy, roads, archaeological remains… However, considering the amount of work this would have represented and the number of numismatic materials collected, it seemed more reasonable and smarter to limit the subject to the study of coins without neglecting what other domains could add to it. Therefore, the latter were not studied thoroughly, but the information they gave was put in parallel with numismatic and was used as much as possible.
