From the collection of Will Gordon.

Price placed this issue at an uncertain mint in southern Asia Minor, an area that was continually contested between the various successor kingdoms, so this could be an issue struck under the Antigonids, Sekeukids, or Ptolemies, depending on the particular mint and date of issue, neither of which are currently known.
