« on: March 25, 2018, 09:44:59 pm »
I worked at this for a few days and I am stumped:

20mm
Greek with Athena/Minerva standing on reverse

legend as best I can make out says:

 :Greek_Alpha: :Greek_Mu: :Greek_epsilon: :Greek_Omega:
 :Greek_Eta: :GreeK_Sigma: :Greek_Iota: :Greek_epsilon: :Greek_Rho: :Greek_Alpha:
 :Greek_Eta: :GreeK_Sigma: :Greek_Tau:
 :Greek_Lambda: :Greek_Iota: :Greek_Alpha: :GreeK_Sigma: :Greek_Mu: :Greek_Omicron:

I attached an image of front and back.

Thank you very much for any help!
