This fascicule represents the second part of the first volume of
Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum of the State Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts
devoted to the coins of the Black Sea littoral. It comprises detailed
descriptions and illustrations of the coin issues struck by the Greek
cities situated on the western, southern and eastern shores of the Black
Sea up to Roman times, thereby completing the publication of coin material
from the circumpontic area stored in the Pushkin Museum. Despite the
relative small number of coins (fewer than 500 pieces) there are quite
rare specimens among them originating from important pre-revolutionary
private collections such as those of Rozanov and Bobrinskii. Most of the
coins have never been published before and will be of special interest to
scholars.
