Anyways, this coin is 20.5mm and appears to have a female bust on the obs. On the back it looks like a person facing left holding something with dots below his extended arm. Thanks for the help!

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 08/05/2021 5:38 pm Too bad the reverse is so worn. Might be a quadrans from Corduba, Spain/Iberia, with Venus obverse and Eros reverse. Weight works - as does the fabric, curl of hair on the obverse - as well as the pellet below that curl, and the three pellets on the reverse. For comparison, below. Not feeling 100% confident it's a match - but it is a possibility. Edited by Kamnaskires 08/05/2021 5:48 pm Report this Post to the Staff
