May I impose upon anyone with this reference to either describe the
coin therein, or perhaps offer a scan of any plate to which it refers.

Unfortunately the description of the coin in Price (#435A, no plate) is a
little ambiguous, and not quite specific enough for me to confirm that I
may have a similar coin.

Mine is a "Philip II type" silver fraction (Price: "1/12th stater");
Obv: Apollo
Rev: Horseman; AΛ-E above, ΛΥ below (in exergue?).
It would be nice to establish whether these could be/are the same dies.

What, if any, reverse inscription or lettering is visible on the Winterthur
specimen? What is presented, and in what position? Weight?

Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks.

Does no one here have access to this reference? :)

Okay, I have it now.
I was able to track down a copy
and have the information required.
Request cancelled! :)
