<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mikjo0, post: 158370, member: 3565&quot;]Bone,first thing I notice is the hole in the reverse and it struck a chord.Next,I see what could be a curly bearded portrait on the obverse along with traces of a beaded circle surrounding it and possibly the outlines of eagle feathers on the reverse,so based on this,here is my best guess,Greek indeed.A lot of coinage of this period had a pronounced hole,probably something in the minting process,near the center sometimes on the reverse,sometimes on both (see 4th pic).On mine,it is right behind Zeus&#039;s cheek.Either that,or It&#039;s an Indian temple token...LOL:goofer:</p><p>The main drawback to my theory is that these Ptolemy coins are usually made of bronze but there may be silver or other alloy versions.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
