Demetrias, Thessaly. AE13, ca 290 BC. 1.44 g. 

Wreathed female head right, wearing pendant earring and with the hair pulled up.
D-HMHTRI-A-DO-S anticlockwise from centre left, 
elaborate prow right, its top curling backwards. 

BCD 63-1; Rogers 206 corr.

Rogers' Mionnet reference is the AR type and coins of 
another Demetrias with different types. The Hirsch 1908 
reference is also wrong, it is a coin of Eurea, and the 
Demetrias coin on the same plate (different number) is 
silver. Hirsch XXV, 595 reference is an AE but with Artemis 
left and prow left. 
The Hirsch XXV coin was purchased by Seltman and is the same coin that Rogers illustrates as part of his own collection. 
It is now in the BM but on examination it is clear that it 
is *not* from Demetrias, but perhaps from Samos or other 
Asia Minor city. Until the letters can clearly determined by means of comparison to another one of the same dies, or at 
least of similar style, it should be classed as 
uncertain or unidentified, of which the BM has a large number.
