Frequency of overstrikes:	frequent	Level of confidence:
Remarks:	"overstruck at least once over a coin with a flying eagle right (cf. a Lyttus, Crete specimen in Le Rider, Crétoises, p. 101, no. 5, pl. XXV, 15) and likely another, earlier coin, whose incuse square appears rotated some 15 degrees relative to the other two (Aspendus and Lyttus) that overlap. Since Cretan coins were often overstruck on other issues from the island, this multiple overstrike could be as follows: Aspendus over Lyttus over another Cretan piece" (nb: it cannot be Lyttus since the round shape on the obverse cannot be reconciled with the boar type it would have; as th identification of the undertype looks problematic - the coin has also been double struck - it is safer to leave it as "uncertain")
