Dear Board,
I have here a piece that I haven't managed to identify. No refernce available to me has been helpful with this one.
My first thought was that it is from
Caesarea Maritima, but the
reverse legend is completely different, but I'm confidient that the coin is from the eastern Mediterranean. Coins like this are somewhat outside of my knowledge.
I have placed the letters I'm unsure about in parenthesis.
What I can read of the
obverse legend looks like Greek written with Latin letters, laureate
bust right:
(ON)EINOS
The
reverse shows SPQR in a
wreath, held up by an
eagle ( like on Ceasarea Maritima coins ),
The
legend that I can read is
(A)CVOITIM(K)AVOIS
diameter: 22 mm
weight: 3.7 g
Any information is appreciated !
