| Prusias(?), Bithynia, Reign of Domitian, 81 - 96 A.D. |   | Obverse countermarked with:
1. head of empress, in oval punch, 7 x 8 mm, Howgego 217 (1 pcs);
2. AV K TP, in rectangular punch, 6 x 4 mm, Howgego 608 (8 pcs).
Reverse countermarked with:
3. PRU in square punch, 7 mm, Howgego 630 (3 pcs).
All coins noted by Howgego with these countermarks are from Domitian and are attributed to Prusias or Bithynia.
Since all coins countermarked with (1) are countermarked also with (2) and (3), while all coins countermarked with (2) are also countermarked with (3), the order of application (3)-(2)-(1) may be implied (also consistent with (1) being a portrait of Faustina Jr. and (2) referring to Trajan). |
