Salamis(?), Cyprus, Pnytagoras(?), c. 351 - 332 B.C.(?)
|Cyprus|, |Salamis(?),| |Cyprus,| |Pnytagoras(?),| |c.| |351| |-| |332| |B.C.(?)|, CNG noted of their similar coin, "The coins of Salamis do feature turreted portraits of Aphrodite, but other than that and the possibility of rendering the monogram as ΠN, there is little to confirm the identification of this coin." We have doubts about the attribution but don't have anything better to suggest.
