Thanks for looking Doug.

 

Oooh, sorry-- I forgot to get back to you. I didn't have any luck with a brief attempt but will keep the coin in mind during endless browsing.

 

Found two that are pretty darn close. Both are Augustus from Teos. But unfortunately there seem to be some key differences. The one (RPC 2512) closest in appearance to my coin is a good deal smaller (3.87 grams while mine sits at 7.42; 17 mm vs 23 mm wide). The second (RPC 2515) has a laureate bust instead of a bare one, but is closer in size (6.4 grams, 19 mm).

#1 (2512)


(also 2512, and it weighs 3.33 gr)


#2 (2515)

 

Hmm, I think a key difference/feature is the transverse sceptre on your coin. These coins of Teos have Dionysos on the reverse, holding a thyrsos but not transversely.
