Have you looked through the online SNG yet? It's a little clunky but worthwhile. Hint: keep your search terms SHORT, like one word.

You will find something like this there, a little larger, though there seems to be some variation in diameters for this state:

Ref. IX British Museum Part I
State: Cercinitis
Period: -300 to -250
Obv: Bearded figure seated l. on rocks holding axe (or dolphin-tipped sceptre). Rev: Horse l.
Material: AE Weight: 5 Axis: 12 Width: 21 SNGuk_0901_0701

I went through Whirlwinds, Acsearch, and Sears no luck. Your reference looks somewhat like the coin, could be from the same area. I need to keep looking. Thanks

There are other variants of this type, but it's the only type I have been able to find of a person holding something on the obverse and a horse on the reverse.
I typed "holding" into the obverse search field, and narrowed it to only search AE
Also set it to view 1000 entries on the search return screen or you will spend half the night loading search results. Good site but a little slow.
