Came via CNG with a "Roman Republic" attribution
But I really don't think so .....

Obv Head of Persephone left ?
Rv Lion walking right (turned facing head ?)
something in exergue (easily misread as ROMA)
10.06 grams 20mm

Did it have a reference number from a published book? Dealers do make mistakes.

Yes, I recently caught a mistake in an on-line auction listing, under very similar circumstances. When the auction firm replied (with thanks) they explained the coin had been part of a lot where the other attributions were all OK.

Starting to give me a headache !
Thinking now a 'panther' is strong possibility
In exergue ?
Seems to reach below the line of any letters or monograms
Circular in form

A rosette ?
