Jochen,

Could this coin be from the same rev. die as the one in your Nicopolis 2012, p. 390, last coin on page?
 
There described as Apollo the Lizard Slayer, but our specimen seems to show Dionysus emptying cup and holding thyrsus. Deities with crossed legs  seem to be unusual for Elagabalus at Nicopolis.

Maybe you have found other specimens since 2012?

Dear Curtis!

Thank you for your post. You are right. No. 8.26.7.12, last coin on p. 1i0, is not Apollo Sauroktonos, but Dionysos. The coin shown is in such poor condition that this error has always slipped through until now. Not only the description is wrong but also the legends. The rev is the same as No. 8.26.7-8, but the obv. is new.

Your coin is already listed under HrHJ (2021) 8.26.8.25. It is in my collection under https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=153953

I have now received the source code of the catalogue from Mrs. Marinova, daughter of Gospodin Jekov, and am preparing a new edition which will also be dedicated to the memory of Nina Hristova and Gospodin Jekov. Since I first have to familiarise myself with it, it will take some time. I hope, however, that I will be able to finish it this year. Until then, any mistakes I discover should be corrected.

Best regards
Jochen

Jochen,

Thanks for your detailed answer, completely settling the question!

I and I am sure many others wish you rapid progress in your new Nicopolis edition, dedicated to the memory of your two co-workers on the earlier editions.

Best regards,

Curtis
