Note The fragment of the date, which seems certain, suggests something between ΓΞΡ and ΘΞΡ, i.e. 133-9 = 117-22/3, but the portrait is not like that of Hadrian on the silver. Haymann, NC 180 (2020), p. 66, defends the obv. reading [ ]Μ[ ]Α [ ]ΝΟϹ, and the attribution to Hadrian
Addition Additional coin-type (post publication)
