Hello! I'm trying to identify some of my Greek coins and any idea is very welcome. Thank you for your help!

Diameter 8mm, Weight 1.4g, Bronze

Tiny coin and low grade. I am unsure of what is on reverse, a type of vase?, a flower? a lyre? a face? ... still trying to understand it

Some comparisons of the OP coin reverse side with the Phoenician AE.

I can't be sure that is a Crab, so I will keep it uncertain.
