    This one is completely out of my realm. It was in a large mixed lot of Greek, Roman, and Byzantine coins.

    ~29 mm, 13.9 gm.

    Any idea what this is?

    can you help with lettering? I can make out what appears to be
    A M A R (C or G) I R A D and inside E and S with maybe an anchor or another letter woven in diagonally?? Do you make out anything different...the C could have a cedilla underneath softening the K sound to an S sound?

    not an ancient... I would suspect early modern Spain again.

    I have absolutely zero-idea what that coin might be, but it sure is interesting!! (good luck with it => I hope it's Eid Mar's shy, rare brother-coin)
