Despite relatively small number of coins registered (less than 500 pieces) there are quite rare specimens among them originating from important pre-revolutinary private collections such as those of Rozanov and Bobrinskii. Most of the coins have been never published before and deserve special interest of scholars as well as collectors and wide public interested in the various aspects of ancient history of Pontus. |
