    Got this roughed up bactrian athena owl bronze recently.

    My thoughts are that its this coin:

    the weight is 1.58g

    Thee bust of athena is pretty much gone, the owl however is in a better shape. The coin seems to be roughly cleaned with acid or something, stripping all the patina if there was any.
    What are your thoughts?
