⁷ If the head on Pl. XIV, 2 in Whitehead *NC* were correct it would be one of the most beautiful things in antiquity; but it has little resemblance to the coin. I examined the coin itself together with tetradrachms of Demetrius and Demetrius II, and Mr E. S. G. Robinson, who was with me, agreed with me that the face must be meant for Demetrius II, apart from the diadem ends. The face is liker those of the other brothers than is the Bactrian portrait of Demetrius II.
