In Latin inscriptions on
Roman coins issued in Greek speaking regions, (or, better, mints that usually produced coins with Greek legends), the letter B is sometimes rendered as R. Although this coin has Greek legends, a
reverse mixup seems to take place. For instance,
Sydenham 393 (a differrent
reverse type) gives the date as ET R, presumably for ET B, or 194AD. Cheers, George Spradling
