[QUOTE="Topcat7, post: 2845222, member: 73372"][USER=82322]@Ed Snible[/USER] and [USER=87186]@LaCointessa[/USER] Thank-you for your comments. Ed, I feel that you are so close. I like your suggested coins, but there is no 'rabbit' on my coin. Perhaps from the same place/time? The coin is 16.3 mm., and weighs 4.56 gm. It is rather thick at 3.4 mm. In hand, the metal has more of the shiny yellow colour of gold (but is not) than the 'reddish' hue of copper. The 'obverse' appears to have the bust of a woman, with her hair tied up, facing right, off centre in the lower right quadrant. (Edit - And has letters behind head which may be "K M ?") The 'reverse appears to have two lines of letters (which could be "CHL" (or similar) over "MYAI" or "MYAK" in a 'vine' wreath, with the vine twisted at the bottom and the 'laurel' leaves travelling around the edge. I am hoping that this description may help.[/QUOTE]
