IV.

Some years since I published a small brass medal of Sidon[177], with the heads of Jupiter and Juno on one side, and the prow of a ship on the reverse; but did not accurately enough describe the numeral characters, and two initial letters, in the exergue. I therefore take the liberty to send[178] you a new draught, perfectly well done, of that inscription. Two more coins of the same type I have since acquired, and another may be seen in[179] Sig. Haym. These four pieces only exhibit the years of Sidon 125 and 132.
