Abstract

The author presents new data on the finds of Greek and Greco-Illyrian coins that came from several archaeological sites in Herzegovina. These data encompass 48 examples of coins that were minted during the period from the 4th to 1st centuries BC. Most of them were discovered as chance surface finds, while a smaller portion was yielded during archaeological excavations. Coins from the Greco-Illyrian cities of Apollonia and Dyrrhachium in present-day Albania predominate, followed by issues of the Illyrian King Ballaios, as well as examples of coins from Corinth, Pharos, Issa and other Greek cities. In addition to new data tied to numismatic topography, this paper also provides new insights into the oldest circulation of coins in the former territory of northwestern Illyria.
