Sorry Rip. I don't recognize it at all.

 

Hi Ripley ...

I can't really tell from here ... is it kinda like this maybe?

 

Not Celtic. I think Jerry is on the right track. Roman Republic Bronze? Unless it's highly corroded AR? To my knowledge the She Wolf - Remus - Romulus symbology is exclusive to Roman civilization. And the bust looks Roman.

 

Maybe this is getting close...

That's a cool coin, TIF, but I don't see a horseman on Ripley's piece. I think it's the wolf, as she's typically portrayed with her head bowed.

 

LOL, you're right... how did I not notice that major difference?

 

Perhaps Macedon, Pella

Hmmm...that also looks like a good candidate.

 

Hey, a blast from my past ...

=> Hi doucet ... "welcome"

 

Long time no see Doucet, and I think you are the winner here. It does look like the coin you linked.

 

Yesssss. Pella thats it !!!!~ Thanks Doucet !!! I have had this one for years. Finally an ID !!!! Yayyyyy

 

Hey Rip, that's a great pic of you.

 

Yah, it's pretty sweet ... but I still like the one where Ripley's just finished putting together the BBQ (now that's hot!!)

 

I wish. Me -

 

Hey Rip, that's a great pic of you. (Oh, I repeat myself)
