  Molinari WOW I have just been scrolling through the work you have put together on man faced bulls
  I am very impressed you have worked very hard and I hope people get chance to check it out .
  I am putting up a photo of my coin I have scrolled through the NEOPLOIS examples and I am not quite sure what is in the exergue of mine or if you can even see the symbol
  Anyway I would be very happy for you to have a look and maybe comment thank you in advance
  My coin does look good in hand with a nice portrait of Apollo and a lovely Nike I just love these coins
  5.24gms 19mm

I'm so glad you like the site, Helen!

I'm not at home now so I don't have the time to go through my page, but your MFB appears to have a Sigma or X behind Apollo, so that should narrow it down!

Judging from the photos, I would say this coin is Sambon 687:

Σ-like symbol or simply Σ behind / IΣ below (Sambon 687)
