Hi there,
I have a small module Greek coin for identification - 8mm/0.91gr.
Thank you very much.

Hi DK2,

I think you mean 8 mm, not 0.8 mm.

Your coin is so worn that a definitive attribution is difficult.

Here is one possibility:

Hi Meepzorp,
Thanks for your reply.
The diameter is indeed 8mm (already changed the post).
You are right, the coin is more likely: AEOLIS, Elaia. Circa 350-300 BC. Helmeted head of Athena left / seed in olive.
I have a few more coins in my collection where I could see more details of the reverse.
Thanks again.
Regards,
Danny
