Very Fine. Rare.
From a private European collection.
Lorber notes that this series with the HP monogram might not have been minted at Alexandria, citing that they typically have Cypriot or Levantine provenances and that one example of a larger denomination is struck over a Cypriot issue of Demetrios Poliorketes.
