Ex Classical Numismatic Group 58 (19 September 2001), lot 254.The monogram in Price is incorrectly recorded. Price references a coin in Munich, but this is erroneous (it is not in the SNG for the Munich collection, published after Price), and a coin in the ANS collection is the only coin listed under 1163 in Pella; it is a coin with the monogram as here, and is a die match to Black Sea Hoard 258–65.
