Notes
Beginning in central Thessaly with Achaia Phthiotis, this volume moves clockwise around that region, covering the various tribal issues, followed by the coins of the Thessalian League and the region's various cities. From Akarnania the catalog moves eastward along the Corinthian Gulf to the heart of Central Greece and the Isthmus of Corinth, ending with Tenea. The coinage within each region and city is arranged chronologically, beginning with the Archaic issues and continuing through the later civic issues in the name of Alexander. Coins are arranged in the catalog with gold first, followed by silver and bronze; each metal is arranged by denomination, largest to smallest.
