<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 7835978, member: 86498&quot;][USER=92983]@roman99[/USER] your coin looks like a nice example of a Flament Group II Athenian owl. The reverse is very typical of this group. I do not believe it is Egyptian. The same is true of the coin posted by [USER=104741]@Ignoramus Maximus[/USER] as well as [USER=91461]@Ryro[/USER].&nbsp; What is interesting is that the coin posted by [USER=101855]@johnmilton[/USER] is an version of a Group III coin with the characteristic eye which is opening at the bridge of the nose and the slightly smaller mouth. The owl again is very typical of this series. </p><p>My Flament II</p><p>Athens Ar tetradrachm circa 450-440 BC Obv Head of Athena right. Rv. Owl standing right head facing.
