Tiny Thessaly? Puny Phillip II?

I've got this little bronze coin I'm stumped on... 10x12mm in size. Appears to be a female head right / horse with rider right with very small legend above (BAΣIΛEΩΣ) and below (no idea...). (monogram above left?)

Could this be from Thessaly? With a nymph?

Is this Phillip II Greek? With Apollo?



(and, yes, it is infected with BD, and is currently taking a bath in DW)

Whenever I think a Greek coin has a female obverse, it's usually Apollo

Sure looks like a Philip II horse rider style bronze. Looks like the reverse says Philip.

 

Looks like it says "Philip" below the horse?

 

Actually, I think it might be from Philip III of Macedon.

 

Oh man, TIF got me...she's fast on the draw!

 

Thanks you two!

So, it looks like this one, but much smaller...

I agree. Philip III Macedon. I have one just like it

 

Nice coin. I like those galloping horses

 

It's an interesting coin, I don't think I've ever seen one that small!
