Dear Collegues! Now I am working on hypothesis about a silver / electrum costs ratio for VII-VI BC Asia Minor. It looks good, but as a one of results of my theory is that very likely earliest cyzicenes (before 550 BC, or first types of group I by Fritze) must to have a gold content close to 63% in average. Here I have a problem - I have find in scholars researches a data only for two hemihektes alloy content. I have purchase for this research purposes one more hekte. I'll do a full XRF analise of this coin in future, but this 3 coins is toooooooo small for good statistic... I know that in some cases NGC provides a data for coins alloy content, and I know for shure that they have some analyses on earliest "cyzicenes". I am asking for help - may be some members have such a coins with analyses in collections? I'll be very grateful for such data! May be someone have a good friendship with NGC to ask how such a data can be acceses? WBR Ivan
