| Additional information |
Phaselis occupied an unusual position among Lycian coastal cities — technically within the Lycian region but culturally and commercially oriented toward Pamphylia, maintaining its own mint long after neighboring cities had been absorbed into broader federal coinage systems. The magistrate name Timarchos appears on a limited run of staters from this period, placing production somewhere in the decades following Alexander's eastern campaigns, when local dynastic and civic authority reasserted itself across Asia Minor's coastline in the power vacuum left by the Diadochi conflicts.
Heipp-Tamer's corpus remains the standard reference for Phaselitan civic coinage and assigns this type a relatively modest die range, suggesting limited output.
