Another last-ditch effort to see if I can get this one identified before I just stick it into the binder as UID.

Chunky bronze. It's a bust right (possibly female or young male?)
Reverse may be a horse with a rider, or some other animal, possibly jumping/leaping left?

The style of the bust in general suggests 2nd or 3rd century AD to me.

I searched RPC for all coins with horses and between 22-23mm, but can't find anything super close with horses left and a bust right. Of course, I might just be seeing things.

22.5mm diameter, 6.2 grams, bronze

Oh, a Bull. Not a horse...that's probably why.

Thank you!
