MACEDON, Bottiaiai. Circa 224-197 BC. AR Tetrobol (12.5mm, 1.71 g). Pella mint. Macedonian shield / Stern of galley left. ACULA Issue I, – (O3/R10 – unlisted die combination)

Geat coin of Bottiaia, Mark. I just happened to have received my SNG Ashmolean Part III Macedonia, where it's listed as #3289. Another reference: SNG Cop 2 (Macedonia) #136.

I have one with a ΘE monogram. I was surprised to see that another one, similar to yours, was missing from my FAC gallery. I've now loaded that one to my Macedonian page.

Thank you Chris. I appreciate the references too.
