[QUOTE="archicard, post: 2210547, member: 57124"]We got this coin the other day with an interesting temple on the reverse and I've been having trouble figuring it out. I have typically seen buildings depicted in elevation or in a 2d view rather than this perspective view. My first thought was roman provincial because of the greek inscriptions, but I don't believe that the figure on the obverse is an emperor. Is it greek? The coin is bronze and measures 26mm. Thanks for any thoughts or ideas. [ATTACH=full]431820[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
