Note Analysis by FNAA: Cu: 79.4%; Zn: 19.2%; Sn: 0.58%; Pb: 0:52%; this coin is probably similar to the specimen from the Prowe collection (Brüder Egger, 1904, lot 1187a), said to have been acquired by the Grand duc Mikaïlowitch. It was not illustrated in the Brüder Egger catalogue but the annotated volume of Rec indicates the obverse legend as ΚΙΑΝΑ ΑΝΤΙΝΟΥΝ
