Comment

The coinage of this city, although rich in many variants, has been little studied and is poorly referenced.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Le monnayage de cette cité, bien que riches de nombreuses variantes, a été peu étudié et est mal référencé.

Interesting fact

The Chalkon coin from Leukai (Ionia) was used as a form of currency in ancient Greece and has a unique design, featuring an image of a mythical creature called a Chimera on one side and a lion's head on the other.
