[QUOTE="TIF, post: 3852187, member: 56859"]What's the size and weight? Here's a good site for coins of Magna Graecia and Carthage: [URL]http://www.magnagraecia.nl/coins/[/URL] Click on Zeugitana on the map to get to the page of Carthaginian coins. From there you can find a similar coin and, perhaps more importantly, see the references they have. Many of those reference catalogs are older and public domain so you can find digitized versions online. Is your coin really small, 12-15 mm-ish? (Alegandron posted while I was composing this but I will continue :D) A similar coin from ACsearch: [URL]https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5772272[/URL] [IMG]https://www.acsearch.info/media/images/archive/9/5636/5772272.m.jpg[/IMG] Most have Pegasos flying left and are a little larger than the coin shown above. I have no idea if the direction of Pegasos or size is of any particular importance.[/QUOTE]
