@aguy, any chance you can remove this piece from the 2x2 and re-shoot the pics? That should help with the glare, but also give you an opportunity to weigh it. All that info should help us to ID what you have here. Thx.

Definitely ancient Greek. I'll be moving this one to the Ancients subforum.

Looks like a serpent-entwined staff of Asklepios. Perhaps an issue from Pergamon, Mysia?

possibly, but I can't tell since the obverse design is super off-center and some things are missing.

Yes latest pics are much better. I think that @kam got it right--here is a link to an example on acsearch:
