Note The personal name could be completed as ΧΑIΡIΩΝΟY (as occurs on ‘pseudo-autonomous’ coins: RPC I,1805-6). RPC I, 1828 is described as having very similar designs and legends and while the reverse could be restored as ΧΑIΡIΞΕΝΟY, the name 10, as given for 1828, can be ruled out. Attribution to Tiberius seems more probable.
