As usual I am losing my marbles trying figure this one out.
I have to admit I only bought it for the lovely green color and the excellent crack !
Yes I like 'em green and I like 'em cracked ..... go figure

The reverse is easy enough MAPKIANOΠOΛEITΩΝ (Marcianopolis)
Artemis huntress reaching for arrow holding bow hound at feet
The Obv. titles seem to run Μ ΟΠΕΛΛΙΟC ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝΟC

But if I am reading it right the legend ends in B
So what am I missing ?

Could it be a messed up K which does appear in some of his legends?

Beginning to think it must be a blundered K for KAICAP
When I first examined it I thought CEB ?
But the spacing for ΑΝΤΩΝΕΙΝΟC didn't leave any room except the single B

M OΠEΛΛIOC ANTΩNEINOC K is one of the legends listed by Moushmov (online at http://wildwinds.com/moushmov/markianopolis.html) and the only one for Diadumenian at Markianopolis with an orphan letter at the end.
