Julius Caesar, and Augustus, Thessalonica, Macedonia, After 14 A.D.
|Thessalonica|, |Julius| |Caesar,| |and| |Augustus,| |Thessalonica,| |Macedonia,| |After| |14| |A.D.|, Traditionally attributed to Thessalonica, but Touratsoglou rejected that attribution based on the style and die axis. We believe the style is not remarkably different from similar types from Thessalonica and, as discussed in RPC I, ΘE on the reverse may be an abbreviation of the ethnic.
