Abstract
It is argued that a newly published type of follis that has been tentatively identified as a new Arab-Byzantine type should be identified instead as a follis of the emperor Leontius II (695-98) possibly struck at Carthage in celebration of the brief Byzantine recapture of that city in 697.
