I just acquired this. It's a Miletos 1/12 stater (silver); about 9mm across at its widest; 6th century BCE. I believe it's a Sear 3533 (lion facing right) which is a bit scarcer than the lion facing left. I love the natural looking surfaces. The photos don't do the coin justice but that's partly because they're huge and show every nook and cranny. I just have to figure out how to properly holder/display it now.
