Ex-Biga Numismatiek, Netherlands (formerly Alibaba Coins), 13 May 2020.

I bought this coin from a Dutch dealer and considered it quite a bargain for less than the equivalent of $20 USD, considering the nice portrait, the interesting snake staff on the reverse, and the attractive patina.
The dealer I bought it from attributed it thus:

But in the thread I posted, @Pavlos pointed out that it is a coin from Pergamon rather than a bronze tessera from Antioch, citing this example. Thank you, @Pavlos. Given what the coin cited sold for, this is probably worth more than what it was misattributed as.
