Here are two greek coins I cleaned but can't identify. From the lot they came in, I was able to attribute the other coins from the Seleucid kingdom. After looking through books and online I can't figure what might be on the reverse of these two coins at all. Also there is some writing on the reverse of each that almost looks like scratches or hash marks, but they are raised and struck on the coin. I can't make out the writing either. Any info would be great Thanks.......

help you by giving very basic info like size,

They look like ~20mm common local/civic issues of
Phoenicia, Arados - Zeus/Ship Prow, Phoenician script
writing below the ship prow. Photos here show the reverses 'upside-down'. You should have no trouble matching on
Wildwinds. Not
Seleukid but from the same general
area (northern coast of Lebanon near Marathos) and not surprising if mixed in with
Seleukid coins.
