Münzkabinett Berlin, Berlin, de ❐

Owner Inventory No.: 18247785

Provenience: 1906 Löbbecke - Vorbesitzer Löbbecke

Public Commentary

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.
