Kayhan himself couldn&#039;t definitively state they were from Mylasa; that&#039;s why he has the identification listed as &quot;Mylasa ?&quot;. The sideways facing head of lion design is identified on multiple styles of coins, all with very similar stylistic designs. They were all previously attributed to Miletos, but now there seems to be a lot of confusion after Kayhan released his doctorial paper regarding these coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1624882[/ATTACH]</p><p>Listed as both Caria, Mylasa and Ionia, Miletos</p><p>Keckman 837-840; Kayhan 835</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1624884[/ATTACH]</p><p>Ionia, Miletos (definitively minted in this city)</p><p>Kayhan 476-482</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1624885[/ATTACH]</p><p>Listed as both Caria, Mylasa and Ionia, Miletos. The stylistic appearance of the lions head is almost identical between the 3 coins. Could it be possible that these coins, with the bird on the reverse, were minted at both cities?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
