First off

to the forum
I do have some information on this coin as I have a coin exactly like this one,
This is an Istros starter dated 400 - 350 B.C.
Obv :2 young heads 1 upside down the other right side up
Rev :sole eagle standing on and attacking dolphin
I(M(on its side))TPIH ____ IMTPIH
I found the photo's so I'll through it up on the screen for you


This example isn't as clear as yours also it could be a B.C.forgery as it could have a copper core judging from the copper spots

or copper has rubbed of from another coin in the hord that it was found in I hope.
