Sellers pics, they are a bit low res: Apamea, (as Myrleia), Bithynia. AE13, before 202 BC. 2.08 gr. Helmeted head of Athena right. M-Y-R-L, between spokes of a four-spoked wheel. SNG Copenhagen 330. Rare. I have found only a couple of images, both of the same coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Wreathed head of Arethusa right, hair bound in sakkos / S-Y-P-A in compartments of wheel of four spokes. above is from wildwinds, maybe your reverse is something similar?

pishpash Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 3626 Posts	Posted 09/06/2014 05:29 am Thanks HH. Will do chrs. I am surprised I can only one find one image on the net. It is down as rare, not extremely rare, I thought I would find more. Only other explanation is that it has been miss-attributed. I like the coin though, it is a keeper whatever it is :) Report this Post to the Staff
