How exciting! Once I got one from Ano Kilbianoi, but a
Trajan. And I haven't seen any for sale from either the upper or the lower town ever since. One of my oldest coins (from 2000); it was what taught me to expect to learn a whole world of
geography in
Asia Minor. But, though I've looked, I've never found one from Kato Kilbianoi--and here you have one.
