A Penny for Your Attribution Thoughts on this Tiny Coin

I love really small coins. It used to annoy me when uncleaned groups contained these miniscule little count fillers. Now I always look at them first because they are often some of the most interesting. This one looks like it has Greek writing on the reverse.
1.65 grams, 10 mm.



Any ideas what this could be?

I missed that thread!

I think you are correct and it is the same coin.

That was way too easy.

 

But not as good as this Theodosius's coin Ever since getting mine and a couple of Seleucid serrated bronzes in a small mixed lot, Seleucids have started to grow on me. Hoping to get a really nice one sometime soon.

 

Great picture

 

Thank you!

I actually find all the detail showing on the penny to be interesting.

I would never have thought as a kid collecting wheat pennies I could casually take a picture of a penny that would be so sharp and detailed.
