A very attractive bronze coin!! (EDIT) I assume it's a similar variation to this one that I just noticed on acsearch: Presumably Athena and the reverse indicating 'in the name of a specific ruler' and with the snake device?
neat snake! that coin looks nice and thick as well (so does MZ's pic), what is the size and weight paskcha?
Very cool OP-addition ... congrats paschka I'm pretty sure that this is my only Pergamon-example ... ... ummm, is it allowed to hang-out with your cool coins? Mysia, Pergamon Cistophoic, AR Tetradrachm 123-104 BC Cista mystica w. ivy wreath & serpents w. bowcase => Snake City!!
The two bronzes shown above combine to spell the ruler name Philetairos. Getting the whole name on one coin is a lot to ask. To make it worse, all the rulers issued coins in the name of the dynasty founder so we don't separate them with much certainty. I suspect the different monograms in the reverse field would help ID them but I am not aware of a reference on them. I do not have a matching bronze but here is a tetradrachm in the name of Philetairos which I have seen attributed to both Attalos and Eumenes. Most give this monogram to Attaos but I can see the reverse monogram as being Eumenes (EYM) so tend to attribute mine to one of the two kings with that name. Please let me know if any of you feel comfortable making these ID's. You will find conflicts in the ones sold online and I am unclear on who is correct.
