Notes
- Note: Gentili records 2 pegasi of Thyrrheium; these are, however, issues of Leucas with Θ on obv. The numbers for Ambracia raise a difficulty. Gentili did not use Ravel and does not clearly identify the issues; 16 seems to be the maximum identifiable in his list. In 1969, however, K noted the following varieties in this hd,: Ravel 14, 42, A24/ P20, 63, 79/80, 91, 109, 137, 138, 141, 146, 147, 166, 169, 171, 172, 174/5, A77/cf. P118, 180, 187 (3), 195, and 2 unc.
