it is just a countermark on half of a coin; but the countermark is quite nice got it in a multiple lot that I bought recently. AE 21 Syria, Apamea (today’s Qalaat al-Mudik), 18 – 17 BC struck under the reign of Augustus 20 x 21 mm, 7.549 g RPC I, 4352; countermark Howgego 201; Ob.: Bust of Dionysos to r. wearing ivy wreath. Countermark of Tyche. Rev.: (ΑΠΑΜΕΩΝ ΤΗΣ ΙΕΡΑΣ ΚΑΙ ΑΣΥΛΟΥ) date (ΕϘΣ) thyrsus tied with ribbon. "Apamea did not mint coins after the mid first century AD. In a publication of the coins in the Antakya Museum, Butcher lists a countermarked coin of the Dionysus/thyrsus type dated by the Seleucid era EΠΣ = 285 = 27 BC. Regarding the mints of the Orontes Valley, based on the data gathered thus far, it seems that only Apamene coins were countermarked. Howgego lists a countermark in the shape of Tyche’s head applied on coins of Apamea, all of which are of the Dionysus/thyrsus type. The author considers this to be perhaps a countermark for indicating a lower denomination."
