| Remark: | Variant 3.2a is represented by a single known specimen, published as Lederer 1931, 38. Lederer notes that the letter Θ in the lower left field of the reverse is very blurred but can nevertheless be identified. However, the letter is not visible in the photograph, so its identification remains uncertain. The symbol in the upper field is completely worn away, and it is unclear whether any symbol was originally present. | |
