Here are the three RPC coins from Hierapolis with Demeter on a Biga: https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/6/5434...
Papillon's attribution are shaky at best. (They seem to find a similar coin via acsearch or coin archives and copy-paste the descriptions, whilst...

Found another much more modern source: "The high gold content of the electrum is typical of the initial period of their circulation ca....
"In the case of a set of electrum coins of Cyzicus of various ages, I found the percentage of gold to vary from 58 to 33 per cent." Excerpt from...
