    And now I'd like to show off my complete ignorance of Greek coins. I'm trying to ID the coin below, and I assume I'll need to search through some coin databases. Is the obverse figure supposed to be Pan or Zeus? There is a ram's horn growing out of the side of the figure's head. On the obverse, do I search for "star", or "sun", or "dot surrounded by eight rays"?

    The coin is 16 x 18 mm and weighs 5.8g. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Your search should be for Zeus Ammon and Star.
