    but I am not able to find this one to attribute.
    Could anyone help me on this please?

    @CoinDoctorYT it is close but not the same coin. My coin has the Φ-Θ on the left of the field and K on the right field. The coin you mentioned has Θ on the left field and Φ on the right with K below

    Sure, but it should help you attribute on wildwinds.

    The same coin you mention is on wildwinds my coin is not on wildwinds. This is why I had posted here asking for help. Thank you for trying

    Your coin is RIC IX Antioch 47c, if you need a picture, here is a link--

    https://www.nummus-bible-database.com/monnaie-90371.htm

    the NRC coin linked above is actually given the wrong RIC number (RIC IX 47d/5) as 47d is has a rosette diademed bust, versus 47c which has pearl diademed.

    Thank you very much @Victor_Clark for the information.
    Is the wildwinds wrong on their 47c they have listed, it only has the (theta) Θ in the left field and nothing else at all. Or are there variants of the 47c ? Sorry if I am ignorant just trying to learn some here.

    Antioch 47 has six different field marks listed in RIC. 1-5 have Θ only in the left field, with different right fields. Below is a pic from RIC IX of the listing.

    Awesome @Victor_Clark thank you so much for your help. I need to get the RIC books do they have them in a digital version or hardback only ?

    No, the publishers of RIC have not authorized digital versions; but (surprise) copies have infiltrated the internet.
