    Not sure what you mean "what's wrong". Here is one of mine, different from yours:

    Here's a hint - what city / province is your coin from?

    O.K. I will tell you what's wrong with the photo. I purchased the coin from Aquila Numismatics a few months ago. The coin shown is not a Pontos, Amisos (AMIΣOY) as described. It's actually a Paphlagonia, Sinope (ΣIN-ΩΠHΣ). How lazy can the appraiser be "Copy-Paste"....
