Added: Castulo, Spain (can't believe no one had posted one in this thread until now!) Gades, Spain Julia Traducta, Spain Saguntum, Spain Daldis, Lydia Prusa ad Olympum, Bithynia @Okidoki, regarding your Hadrian from Tyra, I have Tyra listed as a city in Sarmatia. Is this a different Tyra? The list is likely not complete. I compiled it from a couple of sources but there could easily be missing cities, or differently spelled cities. If you come across a coin from an unlisted city, please let me know .

This town is not filled in on the list, but there are several coins of Turiaso in CoinTalk. However, I rather like this coin, so I put it here anyhow. Coins from Spanish mints, like this one, are sometimes classified as Celtic coins, but aren't they rather Roman Provincials? Spain was firmly part of Rome since at least 80 BC, long before much of the Celtic coinage of Gaul. Iberia, Turiaso. AE unit ‘As’. Tiberius, AD 14-37. Obv. Head r. TI CAESAR AVG F IMPERAT. Rev. Bull standing right, head facing. MVN TVR C CAEC SER above, II VIR before, M VAL QVAD in ex. 27 mm, 9.29 gr. It's from a recent CNG auction, where it was described as ‘From the collection of a Texas Wine Doctor’.
This town is on the list, but no CT member owned one ... until now. The city issued coins in the early Antoninine period (Antoninus Pius, Faustina II under Pius, and some semi-autonomous issues) through the late Severan period (Elagabalus, Mamaea, and Severus Alexander). The ruins of Palaeopolis, Pisidia are very likely those at Ak Euren in the open plains of the Lysis valley in Turkey, between Olbasa and Lysinia. Faustina II, AD 147-175. Roman provincial Æ 19.5 mm, 5.14 g, 6 h. Pisidia, Palaeopolis, AD 148-150. Obv: ΦΑVϹΤЄΙΝΑ ϹЄΒΑϹΤ; draped bust of Faustina II, right, with early coiffure.

There are so many pages I don't know what's what. Hopefully I'm not doublin up. Here's my contributions, in case they were missing: Iconium: Perga:
Just received this Antiochia ad Hippum coin from Leu. The description here is from its previous sale, New York 2019, and they actually missed one previously reported example, Sofaer 23. So not a 'unique and unpublished' but still very rare, probably second known.
This town is on the list, but no CT member owned one ... until now. The town is Otrus in Phrygia, near Hieropolis with an O in the middle, not to be confused with Hierapolis with an A in the middle. It issued coins intermittently. Plautilla, AD 202-205. Roman provincial Æ 20 mm, 4.1 g. Phrygia, Otrus, AD 202-205. Obv: ΦOVΛ ΠΛ-AVTIΛΛAC, bare-headed and draped bust, right.
