The coins from Kampyrtepa are mostly bronze specimens of small denominations. The fi nd includes two coins of Seleucid king Antiochus II and 28 Greco-Bactrian coins of Diodotus, Euthydemus I, Demetrius I, Euthydemus II and Eucratides. Two coins found in Kampyrtepa are of an unknown type, one of them bearing a legend with the name of Heliocles [III]. The supplement to the publication shows three rare imitations of Greco-Bactrian coins of Demetrius I and Eucratides.
