Note The die link suggests that there must originally have been a Θ under the obverse bust. I-B changed his mind about the man's name from Emolobos to Timolobos, when he discovered this coin.  Münsterberg, following I-B's change of mind, gave the reading ἐπὶ ἀρχιπροβοὐλου Τι Κλ Τιμολώβου. The title archiproboulos (referring to the chief magistrate) is known from inscriptions at Termessus.
