This coin weighs 4.30 grams and is 17mm in diameter. The obverse appears to show a youthful head facing right. The reverse looks to be grapes on a vine. I could not find any matches of Soloi, which usually has grape reverses...

Any help attributing this would be greatly appreciated.

Possibly a Dionysos obverse. Maybe from Dionysopolis, Moesia.

Thank you! That looks to be correct, although I cant find a Dionysopolis ae reverse with the vine having leaves on the right like my coin does#129488; perhaps unlisted

I found a match#127881;. It is indeed Dionysos on the obverse. I matched it up to Aeolis, Temnos, SNG Cop. 257

Thanks for the lead!
