It's a [very nice] coin from Thrace, Anchialus (Dolphin + trident on reverse).

scroll-down a bit and then read the post from "dougsmit" ... it looks quite similar

I think that these dolphin-coins are extremely beautiful!!



Plus, the coin has a lathe-mark in the center, which seems to be another area-of-interest of dougsmit's ... ummm, maybe I should merely shut-up and let dougsmit tell you about this coin?!!
