The head on the reverse is similar to the archaic heads found on the early silver fractions of Kolophon (see Kim & Kroll), but the fact of it being incuse, and the obverse type, which is not likely at Kolophon, makes an assignment to that mint unlikely. Silver fractions of this type, obverse figure in relief, reverse in incuse, are typically found in early issues from the Troad (esp. Dardanos), but the types on this issue are not identified with any of those mints in particular.

The obverse bee would normally point to Ephesos, but the reverse type would be highly unusual for that city. The ‘O-X’ flanking the crescent must be part of the ethnic, and one of the few cities which would fit these letters is Antioch. The Copenhagen and Hirsch specimens, though having an entirely different obverse type featuring eagle on thunderbolt, have the convention of ethnic in two lines, separated by another astrological symbol (star), with the magistrate’s name in two lines below.
