Note This unique coin is difficult to interpret. It might have been struck under Augustus, but might be later as well (second century). No ethnic is legible, but this is probably due to the poor state of conservation of the coin. A mint in Asia Minor seems the most likely guess. This coin has a general resemblance to 5434.
