Note |
The reading on the reverse of this new specimen is ΕΠΙ ΚΟΥΩΛΕΩΝΟϹ ΑΙΓΕΑΙΩΝ ΔΗΜ. The coin seems to have only the letters ΔΗΜ in the ligature, and re-examination of the original B coin suggests the same. If this is right, then the legend should perhaps be completed ΔΗΜ(αρχου); the name ‘Demanthes’ should be deleted, and Culleo regarded as the demarch of Aegeae rather than as a Roman official. |
