Note |
The spelling of Vespasian's name is not very clear. The reading ΒƐϹΠΑϹΙΑΝΟΝ given by SNG Cop 144 can be disregarded, as the relevant part of the coin is not on the flan. ΒΑϹΠΑϹΙΑΝΟΝ, which is given by Mu SNG, seems clear, and the coins all seem to be from the same obv. die. The order to the obv. legend can be determined since legends on coins of Cyme at this time all start at five o'clock. For the design, see Dräger p. 336, n. 2.
