    Only few details remain of this coin to help me identify it. The reverse shows clearly the remnants of an ancient ship. The obverse reveals slightly a helmeted person head right. The coin weighs 2.53 g. The helmeted person looks like Athena to me.. Please assist me to find out. Thank you. SAhip.jpg SAhip O.jpg

    Looks like the head is turreted, so Tyche. Galley on reverse - could be any number of Phoenician issues. Probably from Arados, since they are more common than others, but Tyre is also a possibility...
