[QUOTE="Ed Snible, post: 3700860, member: 82322"]This coinage is cataloged according to Alan Walker's magnificent catalog of BCD's collection. The issues of Magalopolis in this period are sometimes given to the Arkadian League, sometimes to the Achean league. On page 367 he says the coinage of Megalopolis "seems to have alternated between triobols of the Arkadian League type ... with added eagle ... and the usual hemidrachms of the Achaean League". He says the arrangement is from J. A. Dengate ["The Triobols of Megalopolis" in ANS Museum Notes (1967) p. 51-110, but the dates are from [Margaret] Thompson "The Agrinion Hoard". BCD #1542-1544 he calls "Archaen League types, c. 175-168". BCD #1545-1549 he calls "Arcadian League Types, Dengate Periods IIB and II, c.175-168". BCD #1550-1551 he calls "Achaean League types, c. 160-146" Coins with the wreath he calls Achaen and the coins with Pan on Rock he calls Arcadian. I don't have Dengate or Thompson. If you are still curious you can look there next.[/QUOTE]
