298 APPENDIX III. 



a beading, with a legend of eight Lycian charac- 

 ters. 



Silver: weight 115 grs. In the British Museum. 



This coin is published by Sir C. Fellows, Plate 

 37, No. 15, and the legend was then read 

 Fegsserd ; it is re-engraved here more accu- 

 rately, and it will be seen that it does not 

 bear out the explanation which I then gave 

 of it. It is difficult to decide upon the order 

 in which the letters of the legend are to be read, 

 as they are in two circles, and we must decide 

 whether to read them in one or in two series. 



In the outer circle we have three letters, pep ; 

 but it must be observed that the p has not 

 the usual form of that letter. In the inner circle 

 are five letters, gem. Perhaps the inner letters 

 give us the commencement of the name of the 

 town, Gerss, with which we are otherwise un- 

 acquainted, and the three outer characters may 

 be numerals. 



No. 9. — The fore-part of two Boars joined, on a beaded 

 base line : rev. Triquetra in a sunk square sur- 

 rounded by a beading. 

 Silver : weight 130 grs. In the British Museum. 

 No. 10. — A Boar, to the left: rev. Triquetra in a sunk 

 square surrounded by a beading. 

 Silver : weight 38 grs. In the British Museum.
