Weight 19.50
Axis 12
Note ‘Isis Pharia … stehenden Frau (Euthenia?)’. Geissen refers to ‘Vogt II, 39 (Typ in München vorhanden)’; Vogt does cite Mu for ‘Isis Pharia und Euthenia stehend’ but we could not see the date clearly on the Mu coin. See the similar design for years 11 (where, however, the figure on the l. might perhaps be male (A Dem 983), and lacks the billowing drapery characteristic of Isis Pharia), 15, 16 and 17 (also with the dolphin). Bust type probable, not certain
