I see "ΔIOKΛ" in the obverse legend (11-1 on the clock), Greek lettering that translates to "DIOCL". And the reverse is the Alexandrian version of the goddess Spes. I hope that helps you in your hunt... I don't want to give you the answers as the hunt is part of the fun. (when you figure it out, you might even say, "Thank ya, thank ya very much!")
I'm just figuring it out too, so I'm not a master at all... it DOES take practice and exposure. Here's my basics as to what I do to help myself: A = A B = B K = C Δ (Delta) = D (D is the first letter in the word Delta) Є or E = E (not too hard) Γ (Gamma) = G (G is the first letter in Gamma) I = I Λ (Lambda) = L (L is the first letter in the word Lambda) Θ (Theta) = Usually is like a Th sound (Th are the first sounds in Theta) Π (Pi) = Usually represents a P (P is the first letter in Pi) P = R (funny, huh!) Σ (Sigma) = S (S is the first letter in Sigma) Ω (Omega) = Usually represents W (I think of it as flipping the Omega upside-down and it has similar bumpiness as a W does) Ξ = X (both Ξ and X are strange) [Others please correct me if I'm wrong anywhere or add to if you have more to share.] So, for example the emperor Marcus Aurelius Probus has a legend on Alexandrian coins that list it as: "M AVP ΠPOBOC" Translates to: "M AUR PROBOC" (I'm not sure why they end often in "-OC" and not "-VΣ" for "US") There's obviously more letters (like Phi), but they don't come up for me as often, so I don't have any helpful tips (or I already figured out enough to be able to decipher it). The greek alphabet is also used for dating... here's a page about that too: https://www.ngccoin.com/news/article/6144/ancient-coins/
Oh, um... you need to change one letter in the word "sea" to make it "see". I can only assume that's the word you meant, anyways... it's crazy the impact that a single letter can have!
