I got this in a batch of uncleaned mostly Roman coins. I think I see some Greek letters on it. Any help appreciated. 4.2 g, 16 mm diameter, 2 mm thick. Thanks!

What-Is-This-Ancient-Coin?-Judea,-Greece,-?


MACEDON. Philippi. Temp. Claudius or Nero. Circa A.D. 41-68. Pseudo-autonomous issue. The Battle of Philippi. Nike standing left on base, holding wreath and palm; VIC - AVG in field / Three military standards; COHOR PRAE PHIL. RPC I 1651. SNG ANS 674 (Time of Augustus). SGI 32.

This historic coin commemorates the final battle in the civil war to avenge the assassination of Julius Caesar, declared by the Second Triumvirate (Mark Antony and Octavian) against the forces of Caesar's assassins Brutus and Cassius, in 42 BC at Philippi in Macedonia.
