Hi

Does anyone knows more about this (i think) greek bronze coin ?
It weighs about 10 gr and its diameter is 33 mm.
If possible I like to know the year, mint, emperor so I can look further on the internet to find more info about the history of this coin.

I have much to learn :)

Thanks in advance

Hans

Again, go to acsearch and search for bronze athena owl. Not sure I like this coin, the portrait does not look right and the coin too thin.

Sadly this is a modern cast copy of a coin that is supposed to be silver.

Thanks, like Pishpash said : the portrait does not look right and know I see why :) . I will try to make a picture of thickness of the coin and post it here.
