Ancient coin identification [opgelost]

4 berichten • 117 keer bekeken
Hello,

I am struggling with the identification of an ancient coin (images attached below). Maybe someone with more expertise could help me with this?

The design looks very similar to those of ancient roman coins. I have identified some before, without too much difficulty. However, for this coin, the writing seems to be in Greek. I have searched the Numsita and Ocre (http://numismatics.org/ocre/) catalogs without any luck.

The coin has around 24 mm on its longer side and a weight of 7.22 g. The material seems to be bronze, but I cannot be certain without further tests.

Any help with identification and dating would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Cristian

Thank you for the suggestion. I have checked, it does not seem to match my coin. Most likely the deity represented on the obverse is the same (or similar). However, the inscription does not match any of the Hilaritas coins. Those have text which is clearly not present on my coin.

From what I can see, on my coin the following symbols are present (with * representing letters that I cannot clearly identify):

Obverse: *Y****ɅN ΓOP*****
Reverse: OKO RNE*N or OKO KNE*N

Thank you!

I'll add it to Numista too.

Thank you!
