That should suffice for possibilities. While not asserting that all Bactrian and Indian monograms \*must\* necessarily represent moneyers—an alternative might be that some represented \*officinae\*,³ workshops, of which a great city might have more than one—I see no reason to suppose that they ever denote mint-cities.⁴ And I am not sure if any monogram occurs which is sufficiently stereotyped to denote an \*officina\*.⁵
