Note Confirmation required. The distinction between ΙΔ and ΙΑ is never easy. However, 2713A/1 does look more like ΙΔ than ΙΑ. Emmett 302/14 cites a similar coin from D 450, but it is left facing, and, as its recent appearance in a sale shows, it did in fact read year 11: see https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/type/8064.
