The characteristics of the Greek letters (lunate Epsilon and v-like Ypsilon) indicate that this weight may be dated to the late Hellenistic - Roman period somewhere in Eastern Asia Minor. The inscription appears to indicate that this is a hemimnaion however we have been unable to find a corresponding mina equivalent to this weight standard.
