I'm stuck on this greek/near east coin. Any help is appreciated! I've included my guesses below. thanks!

Identification-Help---Antiochus-VII?

I'm thinking that the horizontal structure is a ram, but I haven't seen any examples of this type of coin with pellets. Here's my best guess:

It might also be Antiochus VII, but there's no writing on the obverse:

The nearest I could find was on the vcoins site under 'antiochus' (lowest price coins first), in only slightly better condition.

I am not sure enough to commit myself definitely to this attribution.

From the screen, the reverse should be rotated 90 deg. anticlockwise, the obverse rotated 270 deg. anticlockwise.

Hope it is a good start for you anyway. Good luck!
