<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ed Snible, post: 2537661, member: 82322&quot;]Here is a new acquisition I rather like.&nbsp; It&#039;s tiny, just 8mm, about the size of an aspirin.&nbsp; The inscription MAP is probably short for ΜΑΡΛΟΤΑΝ, a name of Mallos. A rare Ammon/gorgon of Mallos <a href="http://numismatics.org/collection/1944.100.54099" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://numismatics.org/collection/1944.100.54099" rel="nofollow">in the collection of the American Numismatic Society</a> has the same inscription and depicts a gorgon in the same style.&nbsp; Incredibly, the reverse looks exactly like the coinage of Athens. The only difference is the inscription, ΜΑΡ instead of ΑΘΕ.[ATTACH=full]543299[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
