Hi Young,

Yes your coin was struck in Arados.

Ref. Duyrat 2005, série 3

The date appears to run slightly of flan, any chance of a clearer image of the reverse ?

I can just make out the Phoenician letter ayin to the right of the city monogram AP (above prow of galley), a clearer image might help with the letter to the left of monogram.
