Ex BCD Collection (Classical Numismatic Group Electronic Auction 435, 2 January 2019), lot 27.A note from BCD from the Triton sale: "Mr. ΠΛΕΙ (if we can call him that) made sure that the whole range of the most popular silver denominations was struck in his name; it would be nice if a ΠΛΕΙ stater turned up (although the assumed chronology for this fascinating series is a little too early for staters). This writer does not expect a hemiobol either as there would be no room for both the ethnic and ΠΛΕΙ on the reverse."
