MORE PHOTOS - Bust of Persephone? (reverse) Bull butting? Help please?
« on: October 06, 2014, 04:37:12 am »
I have this coin that I believe depicts the bust of Persephone and the legend SYRAKOSION.
The reverse shows a bull butting.

It may have been struck under the reign of Agathokles 317 - 289 BC.

It is AE17, Wt 3.3 gm    

Any ideas that might help me to identify my coin would be appreciated.

Sorry. I don't know what happened to the other photos last time?

(I worked it out - Sorry)

Please post pictures of the whole coin, not just half of it.
