Bull reverse
« on: July 08, 2007, 12:33:46 pm »
Ok, first of two.  I think they are both going to be greek but not sure

first coin, looks like a laureate head right.  The reverse seems to have a bull (left) I feel it is a bull because of the thinner hips and large shoulders and if you look closely, it looks like his head is turned toward you and there are horns(?)
The coins is 18.9mm and scales at 5.9 grams, has a nice greenish patina

Any thoughts, thanks Jim
