Notes
- Note: Cesano states that the Syracuse lot represents about half the total hd., but Currò Pisanò (p. 237) gives the original total as 176 (that of Noe 977)
- Note: Jenkins equates the Cesarò 1916 hd. of Cesano with Noe's 167 (Bronte 1915); lie does not, however, take the further step of equating these two with Noe 977 (Sicily 1916). The hd. may originally have contained, in addition to the above, a tetradr. of Messana (Noe 167), 1 decadr. and 14 tetradr. of Syracuse, and 1 tetradr. of Leontini (Noe 977)
- Note: The two Pegasi of Argos (shield) and Thyrrheium (ear-ring) included in this hd. at Syracuse must be intrusive; though both are later issues than any other pegasi in the hd., both are far more worn than the other pegasi
