Provincial Julia Domna/Athena
« on: January 14, 2020, 07:08:42 pm »
Dear Friends

I cannot figure out this one either. Should have been easy but I just could not find it. Maybe the reverse legend is a magistrate I am not sure. By legend it does not seem to be Cilicia, Irenopolis-Neronias.

Roman Provincial, Julia Domna
AE23, 8.80 g

Obverse: IOVΛIA CEBACT, Draped bust of Julia Domna right.
Reverse: ??ΛANIΩN, Helmeted bust of Athena right.

Perhaps the reverse legend starts with a  :Greek_Delta: but there seems to be a countermark over that part.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you and best wishes,
Burak

It is from Dardanus, Troas with (D)ARDANIWN on the reverse.
