ID help please - Roman Provincial?
« on: November 25, 2021, 12:47:07 pm »
I’m finding it difficult to place this coin. 
Obv.  Laurette bust right. I can't resolve the Greek  legend.  Series of pellets on right shoulder.  Rec. Victory standing left, right arm raised, possibly holding a wreath? Object or figure in the field to the left of Victory? I can't resolve the Greek  legend.

Thanks

The reverse might start with a form of Makedonon - Macedonia.  The Koinon of Macedonia???

as I see it
So Philip I in this case. Thessalonica, Macedon. There is a coin similar to yours with Nike holding apples.
