I've bought it some time ago described as Pontus, Amisos, II BC without denomination mentioned. It's 6.6g and 20mm diameter. My shot is that could be a tetrachalkon but I hope someone more experienced can help me on this. Report this Post to the Staff

livingwater Pillar of the Community United States 2213 Posts	Posted 12/23/2025 1:35 pm Many ancient coins do not have a denomination on them. Their value was according to the type of metal and their weight. I looked on Vcoins and acsearch.info. There are several similar examples there, none I saw are described with a denomination. So this type probably never had a denomination or is currently unknown. I have one, Zeus/eagle, 20mm, but with a different monogram by the eagle. Monograms are common on ancient coins, some of there meanings are known, some not. Edited by livingwater 12/23/2025 1:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
