Public Commentary

Genauere Datierung dieses Typs in römischer Zeit unsicher, diesen Typ gibt es wohl nicht schon im 3. Jh. v. Chr. wie in der Literatur vorgeschlagen wurde. Eventuell pseudo-autonome Prägung. More exact dating of this type in Roman times is uncertain, this type probably does not exist as early as the 3rd century BC as proposed in literature. Perhaps pseudo-autonomous coinage.
