<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marsyas Mike, post: 3813575, member: 85693&quot;]Thanks Ed - I appreciate the suggestion.&nbsp; I&#039;ve been searching Hermes and Herakles, but I haven&#039;t had any luck - although there are so many types, I&#039;m sure I just scratched the surface.&nbsp; There are Provincial &quot;athlete&quot; types that look similar too.&nbsp; Or to the right of the figure is that a lyre for Apollo?&nbsp; Or a billowing cape?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Germanicus crossed my mind, but I am not sure why such an inscription (for the person) would go with the obverse portrait or the nude guy (Genius?).&nbsp; The RPC search came up with this reverse inscription: ΚΑΙⳞΑΡƐΙΑϹ ΓΕΡΜΑΝΙΚΗϹ - which seems to fit my coin (for Caesarea Germanica - a place I&#039;d never heard of).&nbsp; To the left on mine, I can make out &quot;ΑΡƐΙΑϹ&quot; so it seems likely this is the place.&nbsp; But I cannot find any coins from there that look like mine in the usual online places - Wildiwinds, etc. </p><p><br /></p><p>I dunno.&nbsp; If it was easy, it wouldn&#039;t be any fun. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks again.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
