 The Third-Century Apollo/Lion Issues (Ancient Coins of Miletos)
The history of Milesian coinage during the third century BC is complex and many chronological details, especially of the late third-century bronze, have yet to be worked out.
The types on these coins face to the left, as in the fourth-century Rhodian-standard silver tetradrachms, drachms, and hemidrachms of her Period I, but unlike the coins of Period I, the silver didrachms of Period III always possess an exergue line on the reverse.
Kinns believes these date to about 205–200 BC and are contemporary with the final group of middle-denomination facing-Apollo bronzes and with the “magistrate” group of Apollo Didymaios bronzes.
