Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 635 Posts	Posted 01/27/2018 6:26 pm This AE coin weighs 4.72 grams and measures 19 mm. There is a note on the holder saying "Corinthian helmet" On the reverse there is lettering above and below the oval shape. Above I think I can make out ME(unknown symbol looking like two Greek letters pi joined together)AM The lettering below seems to end in an M but I can't read the rest. Will greatly appreciate any help! Report this Post to the Staff
