Thracia AE
« on: March 20, 2019, 11:24:51 am »
Hello, If possible please identify this coin. The one side - a horse rider and image on the second side - maybe not exist. This side is depressed. This coin is similar to the Thracian coin.  Weight  5.55 gr
Size  20 mm Thank You!

It is hard to decide, but it could be a coin minted under Kassander:

Hi Alta,

I think VC was thinking of Odessos. There are similarities, but your attribution is a better fit.

Does anyone have any theories regarding what happened to the obverse of VC's coin?
