They look like they might depict goats on the reverse. Both Ainos, in Thrace, and Paros, in the Cyclades, issued coins with goats on the reverse, but I can&#039;t find any record of either place issuing coins this small. </p><p><br /></p><p>Both coins came in the same bulk lot of Greek bronze coins, many of which originated in Thrace or Mysia.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the first, with Apollo(?) on the obverse--8.7 mm, 0.6 g:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1224965[/ATTACH]</p><p>I&#039;d like to make out AINI above the reverse figure, but that&#039;s probably just wishful thinking.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s the second--10.0 mm, 1.1 g:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1224967[/ATTACH] </p><p>Anyone have any suggestions?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
