I've been struggling for weeks in trying to catch what this small bronze coin is. No results so far. It is a small (ca 10 mm diam, ca 1 g weight) coin with front and reverse types I even could not decipher. It looks like a greek or phoenician/punic coin... but I'm not sure. Here follow the better images I could get. Hope some could help or provide me some hints fur further research at least. Giuseppe Report this Post to the Staff

peloro66 New Member Italy 6 Posts	Posted 11/02/2022 02:56 am I really do not know. It may be a wreath ... but there seems to be also a sort of tripod or the like. NO clear idea of what it'd be. Report this Post to the Staff
Novicius Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1168 Posts	Posted 11/02/2022 06:51 am Looking at your second image, it does appear similar to the dove feeding on the coin below from Sikyonia, Sikyon. The other side of the coin also features a tripod in a wreath. The coin on ACSearch is heavier, but it could be a starting point. https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1268845 Report this Post to the Staff
