I'm trying to identify this coin however it has very little details. From what I can tell the obverse is Zeus, I'm not too sure about the reverse but it might be a horse? The only information I have about it at the moment is that its bronze.

Too bad the reverse is so far gone. Perhaps Thessalian League.

Bob, are you thinking the Janus head?

No, wasn't thinking Janiform, Joe - although that's a possibility. We need the dimensions and weight. Was considering this, with Zeus obverse, Thessalos/horse/bull reverse...just speculation:

A Janus head would be pretty cool but it's hard to tell what I have without measurements. As of right now I can't get dimensions or weight because I don't have the coin with me.
