According to Michael Robinson, this coin was misattributed by Baramki: "Baramki gives the reverse inscription as L ΠΡ for the date, which is untenable as the letter L should not be there. I believe the L is in fact E with the top missing, and the Π is a mis-read N. The inventory number for Baramki 156 is C 1038, which is out of place. C 1037 is Baramki 144 which is where I think it belongs. This is your type 4588 dated ENP = 155 = 44/5 AD. with letter A for the first semester. Another example is BMC Sidon 171 (Pl xxiii, 3) which weighs 3.37 gm, close to the 3.40 gm of Baramki 156. Another problem with the date 180 is that it is the only reported Sidon coin with this date, which seems highly unlikely".
