Eagle with head reverted
« on: September 14, 2020, 02:33:30 pm »
AE 15.5 mm, 3.09 g
O: Bust left
R: Eagle standing left with head reverted; holds wreath

The legend that is visible suggests Ptolemaic, but I can't find anything that matches--especially any legend that appears to have "POC" in the middle.  Any suggestions are most welcome.  Thank you.

Thank you PeteB.  I thought it looked like Geta, but wasn't able to find him with that reverse, so I fell into a Ptolemy trap instead!!
