1) My hypothesis:
On my coin naked Apollo that his right hand holding a bird and watching him on the left shoulder in his bow hanging. Perhaps this coin is close to Macedonia?


2) My other fantastic hypothesis:
On my coin Apollo head hare and rabbit ears long protrude from the head of Apollo.

Pavka, what do you mean?

I attributed your coin. It is not rare or terribly valuable. There is no "rabbit." I'm not sure what the reason for the Hypothesis is, can you elaborate?


Again your coin is a bronze coin of Sardis, Lydia, same as the link I posted, is there another coin with no image?

Ancientnoob, that you me showed to Tu it other coin which isn't similar to mine. On yours the dressed Athena who holds Nika, a board and a spear, and on my coin naked god who in one hand keeps a fowls, and on other shoulder at him hangs onions. A font on my another and letters others. It is seen not Sardis, Lydia.

I'll tell you differently: it can and Sardis, Lydia., but you have another coin in the picture. If this Sardis, in your opinion, then please show the same with my coin.

Although if you look closely, then this coin is quite different. Although when viewed without glasses and a magnifying glass, a kind of like my coin. And if you look then both the mist coin 100% but the same

If we had better pictures, we might be able to pin this coin down. But we really don't have much to work with. You have been given some opinions and ideas who it might be. Unless someone stumbles upon a reference soemwhere, I can't see where we can provide any more information at this time. Good luck with your search.

I tak friends my Russian friend - numismatist helped me solve this coin.
I was right there out of my head sticking out long ears, but the hare and the donkey. And the naked man, not God, the king. You certainly have guessed who this king?
