My Mystery coin o' the day. :)

(1/1)

featherz:
Finally picked up some of my coins from the bank and started going through the 'mysteries' - Pretty sure I have asked about this one before, but with a much worse picture. Anyone have any thoughts on this one? Obverse I am guessing at possibly Sev Alexander (?), but legend I can't make out. Reverse appears to have no legend at all and is possibly a centaur/pegasus or?

Pscipio:
Maybe Corinth with Pegasus reverse? I didn't find a match in Lanz's Corinth catalogue, however. What's the size of the coin?

featherz:
Could be.. The reverse is oddly high relief for such a thin coin (forgot to mention, it's roughly 18mm or so). It looks to me kinda like someone riding on a pegasus, but then again I could have the coin entirely oriented incorrectly. No legends or even a trace of a legend on what's there of the reverse.
