<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TIF, post: 3128331, member: 56859&quot;]I really don&#039;t know what the reverse is and it&#039;s driving me a bit crazy <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.&nbsp; I see a small bunch of grapes at the end of a thick stem, although I doubt that&#039;s it.&nbsp; Perhaps the &quot;stick&quot; is the handle of a rudder or some similar implement?</p><p><br /></p><p>Everything about it looks somewhat familiar, although I guess most ancient coins do after you look at tens of thousands of them.</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;ΘEOY YIOY&quot; means God of Gods or something like that.
