Coins From Aeolis, Twelve Cities

https://blog.ma-shops.com/aeolis-coinage/
Aeolis was an ancient Greek region on the northwestern coast of Asia Minor, settled around 1100-1000 BC by Greek migrants from Thessaly and Boeotia.
These settlers founded a group of twelve cities, including Kyme, Smyrna, Aigai, Elaia, and Gryneion, forming the Aeolian League.
Kyme became the leading city, often called the "Mother of Aeolis."
These cities minted their own coinage over a long span of time — from classical Greek times into the Hellenistic and Roman periods.
In the 6th century BC, Aeolis came under Persian control after the fall of Lydia, later joining Alexander the Great's empire in the 4th century BC.
