R. Ashton, in "Rhodian Bronze Coinage and the Earthquake of 229-226 BC," NumChron 1986, pp. 1-18, links the extensive production of silver coinage under Ameinias to the contributions made to Rhodos by its trading partners to further relief efforts after the horrific earthquake that leveled the city and brought down its famous Colossus.
