    That appears to be from Pergamon in Mysia, struck under the magistrate Diodoros. It's quite an attractive coin, I don't consider most Pergamon bronzes to be particularly appealing but yours is nice. I don't think it's rare but it's definitely a better example of the type.

    I have to disagree with my friend @Plumbata. I find many coins from Pergamon attractive such as your example and this one
    PERGAMON MYSIA 2.jpg
    PERGAMON MYSIA
    AE15
    OBVERSE: Helmeted head of Athena right
    REVERSE: Head and neck of a bull right "A" above
    Struck at Mysia, Pergamon 310-283 BC
    3.09g, 15mm
    SNG France 1571.
    Ex Malloy Auction LXVII,93
    Ex Aegean Numismatics

    and this one:
    MYSIA Pergamon 1.jpg
    PERGAMON MYSIA
    AE15
    OBVERSE: Helmeted head of Athena right
    REVERSE: Head and neck of a bull right "A" above
    Struck at Mysia, Pergamon 310-283 BC
    3.09g, 15mm
    SNG France 1571.
