Archraz Pillar of the Community United States 3499 Posts	Posted 05/18/2023 09:38 am Hi everyone, I just acquired this unidentified Greek Bronze from an old collection. However, it did not come with any identifying information, and I am having difficulty deciphering it. It is 25mm and is 12.97g. The obverse features a helmeted and bearded male head left. However, there is no text. The reverse is a bit more difficult to make out. It appears to have a standing figure holding a staff or spear. And the figure may also be holding a shield. A previous owner appears to have inked the back of the coin with the number "73." Any help IDing this coin would be appreciated! Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
