Poids très. Monnayage autonome anonyme. Au droit, nous pourrions avoir une représentation d’Apollon. Au revers, la chelys est la lyre primitive formée sur une carapace de tortue.
Very heavy. Anonymous, independent coinage. On the obverse, we could have a representation of Apollo. On the reverse, the chelys is the primitive lyre formed on a turtle shell.
