@micha, while we wait for @bobL or one of the other experts to weigh in with a correct identification, I'm going to guess that with a left-facing portrait on one side and a lyre on the other, your coin might be an AE11 from Troas, Hamaxitos (BMC 1).

I am looking some Hamaxitos samples now, size, weight and style looks very similar.
