[QUOTE="rexesq, post: 1120976, member: 5739"]Darn I just wrote out a long response and accidently deleted it .... argh.... Anyhow thanks Ardatirion, and yes I also recall that the coins struck at Ephesos used Greek lettering rather than Latin, I wasn't sure when they stopped production though. However I am very interested as to where Ripley saw this letter 'E' he was speaking of... Ripley, as far as the letter 'E' did you just mean one of the letters in the titles? I am just stumped as to the mint of these.... I know several mints in Asia were used to strike coins of Valerian and Gallienus, and I am aware it can sometimes be difficult identifying from which mint a particulat coin came from. I mean.... the APOLINI PROPVG Antoninianus, with Apollo drawing his bow.... some of the lettering makes me think it could possibly be from the Rme mint.... but again, can't be sure.[/QUOTE]
