Münzkabinett Berlin, Berlin, de ❐

Owner Inventory No.: 18247774

Provenience: Fox 1873 (ex Steuart)

Public Commentary

Randausbruch rechts. - Die Lokalisierung der Münzstätte ist umstritten. Sie wurde früher in Makedonien vermutet, doch verweist bereits AMNG III-2 92 auf Thrakien, genauer die Gegend um Maroneia.
