Georgios 96 was a basilikos spatharios; owner of a seal dateable to the mid eighth century: Seibt, Bleisiegel, no. 179. Obv.: invocative monogram of Θεοτόκε βοήθει with the legend τω - δου - λω - σου. Rev.: + - Γεορ - ιω βασι - λικω σπ<α> - θαριω. Seibt proposes to identify this man with the owner of Zacos and Veglery 1933 and Konstantopoulos, JIAN 9, 162a (Georgios 166, βασιλικὸς σπαθάριος καὶ στρατηγὸς τῶν Βουκελλαρίων), because of the similarities of their seals. Cf. also Leo 137.
