'Senate' bronze of Lydia, Hermocapelia

Since I spotted, bid and won this rather nice but modest bronze, I'm having more difficulty precisely attributing it than I imagined. I'm stuck at SNG Cop 163 and 167 with difficulty seeing the Greek lettering (you don't want me to say "It's all Greek to me" again, do you??), and I can't seem to get a better visual match...Any help at all would be greatly appreciated and posting your comparative types always highly welcomed. Thanks, y'all

Of course, this bronze is meant to depict a 'youthful' Senate and a Turreted bust of Roma and were typically struck between 117-138 AD

I think you might be looking at the wrong spot. Have you searched under Mysia, Pergamon ?

 

Actually, I hadn't considered that since the seller HHC had it identified as above, but I have run across a few misattributed types lately, so you may very well be right...I'll give it a shot.

 

Regardless, that's a very nice piece Mikey.

 

oh yeah, THC is right. type that in acsearch.

it's a great looking bronze MZ, both profile bust are fantastic.
