<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Broucheion, post: 3882513, member: 104887&quot;][USER=103829]@Jochen1[/USER]: Thank you for this information. Your beautiful coin clearly shows APC for the Arsinoite name. As that was not there on my specimen I did not think to look for it in the Nome Series. I&#039;ve since located yours in Weber &amp; Geissen (Die alexandrinischen Gaumuenzen der römischen Kaiserzeit) on page 195 (see Taf XI, #105).</p><p><br /></p><p>My coin type is not noted there under Trajan - and I understand why that would be - given the lack of nome abbreviation APC. So, I would not class my coin with the Nome types. Instead, I would consider it a &#039;regular&#039; issue coin that may have been a prototype for the Nome coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>A brief review of Weber &amp; Geissen (in French) by de Callatay is <a href="https://www.academia.edu/27298009/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.academia.edu/27298009/" rel="nofollow">here</a> (<a href="https://www.academia.edu/27298009/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.academia.edu/27298009/" rel="nofollow">https://www.academia.edu/27298009/</a>).
