Galepsos was located on the Strymon Gulf about 20 kilometers east of Amphipolis, but beyond that we know nearly nothing else. Its coins are extremely rare and are not mentioned in any major publications. That being said, more seem to be entering the market.
I have unfortunately not been able to procure the paper that discusses this coin.
