Graeco-Roman Fantasy61 viewsModern (late 20th century) brass or other gold colored metal (possibly gold plated or gold filled) pressed fantasy "coin" manufactured for use in jewelry.
The "coin" is a hybrid of modern stylized versions of ancient designs. It is unclear which side is meant as the obverse and which the reverse, since the two types it imitates are both reverses, but one side loosely imitates a AR tetradrachm of Thasos, 2nd century BC, depicting Herakles standing, holding his club with right hand; legend in Greek: HPAKΛΕΟΥΣ ΣΩΤΗΡΟΣ ΘΑΣΙΩΝ (misspelled OΛΣΙΩΝ).
The other side loosely imitates a AR denarius of the Roman Republic, specifically that of moneyer P. Maenius Antiaticus, 132 BC. Legend: P MAE ANT; ROMA in exergue. Victory driving fast quadriga, right
Holed for jewelry use; die axis places hole near 12 o'clock on both sides.
