S; above, two facing imperial busts, both draped and nimbate; all engraved in outline and inlaid in silver. Rev. Blank. Bendall -. MAH -. Pera -. Very rare, and highly unusual. Some deposits, otherwise, very fine.


This weight lacks a weight or denomination mark: it is either a commercial weight of 6 Grammata = 1/4 Ounkia, or a coin weight of 6 Scripula = 1 Sicilicus = 1 1/2 Solidi.
