Thank you for all your
help Sam.
I can see that there must be some level of confusion given that the
mint name
is either not fully present, or perhaps a little blundered.
In some ways, if we can eliminate certain possibilities, then the remaining pool
of what is possible will be smaller, and any
search can be concentrated there.
As I said above, I only put forward the
Damascus possibility as it was the only
one I could find that
had nothing in the left
field, whereas all others appear to
have something there, whether it is more script or perhaps a
star, etc.
I have compared the coin to as many as I could find, so far, and have found no
direct match, and only a couple that come close. I am not sure what you mean
by a "Panorama" look. Manbij appears to be a possibility, but is there enough
remaining to be any more certain of a
mint attribution to that city?
Thank you again for your kind lessons.
Walter
