Here is my last Greek one for today.
Its 21mm diameter.
Its a nice coin, I think, and I thought it was a Civic Issue from Phoenicia, Tyre, with Melkart on the Obverse and lettering around a club on the reverse.
I'm just not sure it looks like a club. It seems to look more like a sword which has a hilt at the top.
What do you think?
Anyway, that's all for today.
I may have more to put on soon but you have my appreciation for any help with these.
Cheers
