[QUOTE="TIF, post: 3172866, member: 56859"]What an interesting coin and puzzle! It does seem to be a coin of Apameia in Phrygia rather than from the Apameia in Bithynia or Apamea in Syria. I don't see any similar coin of Macrinus or any other emperor in ACsearch and an ISEGRIM search also came up empty, although I'm not confident of my usage of ISEGRIM despite [USER=82322]@Ed Snible[/USER]'s more [URL='http://isegrim.mybluemix.net/']user-friendly interface[/URL]. I also checked [URL='https://archive.org/stream/kleinasiatischem01imho#page/204']Imhoof-Blumer, F. [I]Kleinasiatische Münzen[/I]. (Vienna, 1901 - 1902)[/URL], and found nothing like it in the Phrygia Apameia section, although I don't speak or read German so I may have missed something in spot-checking a few key words. [URL='http://www.ancientgreekandromancoins.com/bmc/phrygia/BMC-Phrygia_index.php']BMC Phrygia[/URL] doesn't have it.[/QUOTE]
