Hello All,

I have this bronze coin which looks very similair to the Akragas Sicily bronze coins. But I can't find an exact match

The reverse is most of the time a bird facing down. But mine looks like a pegasus type?

The obverse with the crab and the tuny fish is similair to alot these type of coins.
Anyone happens to recognize this one?

it does weight like 6,21 grams

Certainly not my area but a quick look on wildwinds may solve it for you.
I think it is - Calciati 70v.
I can see the Eagle with its head down & wings spread above, I think that is where your minds eye has led you astray Vince.

Now I see it myself aswell..
I just focussed on the wrong point and saw a head which I mistake for a pegasus

Thanks for this!
