Afternoon all!
I was going through a junk box of Greek coins this weekend and picked out two which I liked. The dealer was able to identify one as from Amphipolis in Macedon (it had a nice reverse if with a rougher front) but could not ID another aside from thinking it was from Aeolis, possibly Kyme.
Obverse:
Mystery-Greek-Coin-ID-Request-Aeolis?
And der reverse:
Mystery-Greek-Coin-ID-Request-Aeolis?
I would appreciate any help you all could provide on IDing it. Thanks!

In a junk box of Greek coins, I would just cherry pick a few of the best, based on potential ease of identification.
