Praefectus Posted November 20, 2022 · Member Share Posted November 20, 2022 Any suggestions as to the issuer of this 14 mm. 3.4 gm bronze? The flan is 4 mm. thick and tapered like a Ptolemaic or Carthaginian coin. Possibly from North Africa? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benefactor robinjojo Posted November 20, 2022 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted November 20, 2022 Interesting coin. I see what appears to be "AΘE" on the reverse, possibly connecting the coin to Athens in some way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
