Sellwood’s arrangement this series is based on a combination of the tiara type and the break of the word MEΓAΛOV in the reverse legend. While the obverse of this coin is Sellwood’s design type i, the MEΓAΛOV on this coin has no break. Thus, both Sellwood numbers (and both assigned mints) are cited here.
