    Have been looking for this coin since yesterday. I'm just giving up. Could you please help me to attribute this small AE coin?

    Can't even say if the obverse is Apollo or Artemis nor where it is from:confused:
    On the reverse there seems to be a strung bow and a quiver; the legend is quite worn:(
    Your help is very much appreciated

    14.10 x 16.10 mm; 2.409 g

    The first two pictures are mine; the third picture is courtesy from CNG:

    Just to keep you all updated: I asked at the German forum; the member Altamura kindly put me out of my misery by attributing it:happy::

    It is a Greek coin from Sicily, Alaisa Archonidea, late 3rd - early 2nd century BC like this one: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=8360058
