Watch List notes:

AMBΛAΔЄΩN ΛAKЄΔAIMONIⲰN / APTEMIΔ ΦΙΛO Tyche standing front, head to left, holding rudder in her right hand and cornucopiae in her left. BMC -. SNG Copenhagen -. SNG Leypold -. SNG von Aulock -. Von Aulock, Pisidien I, -. Apparently unpublished. An interesting and well struck issue of lovely style. About extremely fine.


While the reverse of this issue proclaims a Spartan heritage of the Ambladeans (ΛAKЄΔAIMONIⲰN), the meaning of the term APT ΦΙΛO (sometimes APTEMIΔ ΦΙΛO) is disputed. It could either be the name of a magistrate, or an honorary title of the citizens of Amblada ('friends of Artemis').
