A hoard of over 900 silver coins was discovered in Cappadocia, probably in Caesarea, in 1983. A catalogue of the hoard is followed by an illustrated conspectus of the silver coinage minted in Caesarea between the reigns of Vespasian and Commodus.

The Silver Coinage of Cappadocia, Vespasian-Commodus by William E. Metcalf as ANSNNM 166. The first portion of this Society publication is a catalogue of over 900 pieces from a hoard (estimated at over 2,000 coins) seen at the ANS in 1983; all but one are didrachms traditionally assigned to the mint of Caesarea. These are the point of departure for a conspectus of all Cappadocian silver of the period. Commentaries deal with the coinage reign by reign, and concluding chapters summarize the significance of the hoard and the coinage.

A major conclusion is that not all Cappadocian silver was actually struck in Caesarea. Metcalf argues that portions of the coinage of Vespasian and his family, of Trajan, and of Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus were actually produced at Rome; and that all the coinage of Domitian was struck there. The volume concludes with five appendices (including a discussion of the silver and copper coins, "ghost" coins, and a concordance with Sydenham) and four indices.
