I-B gave the reading ƐΠΙ ΠΟ ΑΙΛΙΑΝΟΥ ΥΟΥ ΑΡΧΙƐΡƐΩϹ ΑΡ Α ΤΟ Β, ΔΑΚΙΚΟϹ ƐΠΙΜ(ελητής) ϹΙΛΑΝΔƐΩΝ, and added the comment, 'Als Personenname schient Δακικός neu zu sein'. However, ΠΟ can now be read Γ ΙΟΥ, as on other coins of the same person. ΕΠΙΜ can also now be seen to be ΕΠΙΝ, standing for Ἐπίνικιος, and the phrase Δακικὸς Ἐπίνικιος = Victorious over the Dacians, which also occurs on coins of Aurelius and Verus at Silandus, must refer to Trajan; the Antonine coins depict a temple enclosing a military figure (presumably Trajan). Presumably a temple was dedicated to Trajan's Dacian victories, and Trajan would have provided a good precedent for both Verus' and Alexander's eastern campaigns, which is why it is mentioned on those two occasions.
