    Looks like sylphyum or a not so shaggy coconut palm.

    Can you make out any letters near the trunk?

    Pavlos You pick out the big men. I'll make them brave!

    It is definitely a Demetrios, Tyre mint. Looking at the (young) face and nose my guess would be Demetrios II at his first reign. Reference: SC 1970.

    This type is not uncommon and the condition is not the greatest so I would say not valuable.
