I haven’t been able to see a reference to this Pontos  Amisos AE22 Obv.  Weak struck Laureate head  Zeus right. Rev.   :Greek_Iota: :Greek_Lambda: below eagle standing left on thunderbolt looking back. Star like monogram left field.  The weak obverse has made image capture difficult.  6.5gr 20.8-21.4mm axis 11hr Thanks
