    This coin should be so easy but I just can't find the match to it. Obviously a Seleukid type of (most likely) Antiochos I with bust of Apollo on obverse and what appears to be Artemis with bow over shoulder, holding a short torch on reverse.

    Antiochos Apollo 1.jpg

    Would appreciate any help with the proper ID. Help. Please.

    15mm and 3g I assume?

    Edit: if it is then you have a
    Antiochus III undated
    O: Apollo R: Artemis holding torch.
    Seleucia on the Tigris
    C.f. SC 1184 control not listed

    If it is in the range that David mentioned my guess ID is Antiochos III from the mint at Seleucia on the Tigris with a reference of SC.1184 given the reverse of Artemis advancing left holding a torch.
