The assignment at 'Dorylaion' goes back to Imhoof Blumer. H. von Aulock, Phrygien II, 63 puts the coin without explanation after Hierapolis. Bloesch, Winterthur notes a handwritten note by Imhoof Blumer that remarks of Phrygian Dorieion, which has no known coinage (neither the Winterthurer nor the available piece show a "Y" at the end of the legend, actually also "I" is possible).08/27/06 at 10:23Dimitry: Gutknecht puts the coin in Hierapolis, without explanation
