Not in my collecting area but for $20 I thought this was a nice example for the type.

If anyone has a full attribution, that would be great.

5.9g,18-19mm

Thank you

Can you take a closer picture of the mint mark on the bottom of the coin? The regnal year is 9, 573/4 AD indicated by the number 7 in the right field.

That's good, thanks. From the Thessalonica mint, SB-365. Nice looking coin.

Thank you Ron.

@Spence, thx. I can't seem to get the right lighting with my phone. I think the seller's picture brings out the obverse detail better. I noticed these coins usually are pretty low quality.
