The picture of the reverse is not very clear, but could it simply be one of these nymph and rose coins from Rhodes?

Please embed a single coin URL from acsearch, the link you have provided is too long and does not work unless copying and pasting.

You are right, sorry :-\ .

But which is the right way to include such links such that they work? Or is the forum software not able to handle that?

Having another look at pictures it seems coin could be one from Rhodes, altough In hand it seems that there are a couple of barley on it and nothing in the middle of theme.

2 more pictures have been added to see if they can clarify it.

Thanks so much for your time!

It´s possible to shorten acsearch links without loosing the functionality.

long:
https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=rhodos+nymph+rose&category=1-2&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&currency=usd&order=1&company=

the same, short:
https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=rhodos+nymph+rose

sometimes this helps, but sometimes it seems that * and brackets are the problem, not the length. This might be the case for your link.

I think this is the problem with my link. And I am using wildcards fairly often  :-\ .

Hi everyone, after having more research I have found a coin from Rhodes which reverse seems to be like mine, it has two bud roses on it: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=281897

But I haven´t been able to find that reverse or similar on an AE coin.

Any reference?

Thanks
