Note (1) The coin in NY 1944.100.55500, housed with the coins of year 16, is very hard to read, and, if anything, is probably of year 12. It must be on the wrong ticket, since it is described as Elpis and Harpocrates of Mendes and referenced to D875; (2) the date on Mi SNG 892 is illegible; (3) O594 is described as this design with obv. inscription including KAI. This rare variety of obv. inscription is attested for year 12 (4306.3), but is more frequent in year 13
