Title: Unknown Coin with horserider ...
Post by: Michael van der Lee on January 05, 2022, 10:18:22 am

Hi Everybody !

Maybe someone has an idea ? Though   admittedly this is not the best of coins ...

Obverse has a horserider over a snake (?)
Reverse has a god facing right, draped, right arm outstretched.

Coin is 18-21 mm - 6,0 grams

Any idea is welcomed

Thanks !

Hi Senatus :)


Hmm maybe, at first I thought it was a man, but if draped it should be a woman.
Not quite sure if I saw Athena like this before, but possible.

Thanks !
