no clue, but it is a pretty cool looking coin you have there. Where did you get it?

25 years ago a relative went overseas & brought back a box of old coins..I was told to take what I wanted. I've had them put away for years. I came across them while tossing out some things..thought I'd try to see what they are.

I believe it's a tourist replica of an ancient coin (or perhaps two different ancient coins). The obverse is modeled off a coin similar to the one I'm using for my avatar, from Rhodes.
