Chronologie und Verbreitung der hellenistischen Bronzeprägungen von Pergamon: der Beitrag der Fundmünzen

Attalid bronze coinage from Pergamon, independently minted and exclusive to the dynasty until its end, served as a political tool extending the Attalids' influence across non-minting city-states dependent on their coin supply. This study reveals that the widespread distribution of these coins reflects Attalid rule, with later provincial significance marked by temple coins, likely aided by Panegyric events. By analyzing coin assemblages and individual finds, researchers established a relative and absolute chronology of Pergamon's Hellenistic bronze minting, shedding light on its role in both local and regional economic and political dynamics.
