<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ffselvi, post: 944761, member: 26577&quot;]I&#039;ve been working in Jordan for nearly 2 years and live in a valley near the historic Ancient Dead Sea.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just last week, I was taking a stroll near the natural Hot Springs which flow about 10 miles to the Dead Sea and came across this coin protruding out of the ground.</p><p><br /></p><p>It&#039;s silver, just over an inch across and has a Greek inscription EYOH(E) - KYMAL(O)N only on one side where there is a picture of a horse. The reverse side is the bust of a male which doesn&#039;t have anything written (see photo). The &#039;E&#039; looks like a sideways &#039;M&#039; and the &#039;O&#039; looks like the Greek Omega symbol.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have been told that the coin dates back more than 2,000 years to the Ancient Greek ruler King Seleuces which has ruled the region and the inscription looks Greek but I&#039;ve scoured through all databases to see any similar coins but to no avail.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can anyone provide any assistance?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
