<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cmezner, post: 24801661, member: 87809&quot;]In the lot that I won and I&#039;m still checking and attributing, there is this one with the flip showing that the previous owner bought it from Ken Dorney, probably some time ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ken not only publishes the coins he has currently for sale; he also publishes all the coins he has sold in the past. That&#039;s really amazing and he is the only one I&#039;ve seen who does this, so I was able to find the coin, including a nice picture. Thank you so much Ken, for your great and professional work.</p><p><br /></p><p>Apollonis was an ancient city of the Lydian kingdom located in northern Lydia, on the Cissus, a tributary of the Hyllus, near modern-day Palamut Kalesi, south of Apollonia in Mysia. It was named after the queen Apollonis, the mother of Eumenes II and Attalus II of Pergamum.</p><p><br /></p><p>AE 26</p><p>Lydia, Apollonis, 198 – 217 AD, time of Caracalla; Magistrate Demetrios</p><p>26 mm, 7.7 g</p><p>Mionnet Supp. VII, 34: Paris 54; Kurth Demos 509; Leypold 2 in Möng XXX, IV, 1990; Leypold I, 887; GRPC Lydia 33.
