Hi,

This coin was part of another thread where every coin got identified except this one. Hoping someone knows what this is. Or could at least narrow down the time frame.

Thanks

I'm not promising it'll help, but some kind of indication of size might be helpful. I'm assuming it's small, and would suggest Nabataean as a possibility.

When I first saw it the image on the right it reminded me of Tyche the Greek goddess of chance and luck - which is ironically what I think you will need to ID this coin!

Here are some other pictures of her on Caracalla coins.
