[QUOTE="Topcat7, post: 2359625, member: 73372"]Thank-you, TIF. Following your 'directions', the best I could do was :- Apollonia Pontika, Thrace. Circa 3rd-2nd Century BC. AE 20mm (5.16 gm). Obv: Apollo seated left on omphalos, holding bow. Rev: MYS, Anchor with crayfish and upturned A on either side. Imhoof-Blumer, Monnaies Grecques 47; cf. SNG BM Black Sea 188 (magistrate). Good VF, dark green-brown patina. Very rare. 73, Lot: 12. Estimate $150. Sold for $205. Ex Classical Numismatic Group 60 (22 May 2002), lot 416. Used with permission of CNG coins, [URL='http://www.cngcoins.com']www.cngcoins.com[/URL], Jan. 2011 apollonia_pontica_Imhoof_47.txt But, this reference refers to SNG BM Black Sea 188, and I think that my coin may be SNG BM Black Sea 190, but without the reference material I am a bit 'stumped'.[/QUOTE]
