Small Provincial, no idea

[areich]

Hi all,
I just can't make sense of the obverse legend here.
What I read is: .I. LEIDAD  - EDI[]. I'm not sure if the I with the two dots was how they
wrote the Phi at the time?
Reverse legend is just NEWKORWN and some kind of figure with a cape blowing behind her
and a piece of cloth in her hand.

19mm, 3.41g

Thanks

Andreas

One more:

It is Philadelpheia in Lydia, SNG Cop. 27,366 and SNG Aulock 3064. The reverse Legend is ΦΛ ΦΙΛΑΔΕΛΦΕΩΝ. The town was named Flavia from Vespasian's time on.

Regards - Frank

It's so obvious now that you've told me, thanks a lot!
Do you have an idea what the reverse could be, since the Aulock coin has a different one and
it isn't in there?

Now that Frank has IDed the city:

BM 37, rev. NEWKOPWN, Nike running r. holding wreath or fillet in both hands, from Caracalla on because of title Neokoros.

It looked though strange that I never considered Nike, thanks!
