[QUOTE="cmezner, post: 26125874, member: 87809"]Got two in a multiple lot. The first one had remnants of red rubber bands !!!!! (who would do such a thing :eek:) stuck onto it and I really was thinking of recycling it. Then I thought I would try to remove it with 70% isopropyl alcohol: This is how the obverse of the first one looked, but I already had removed some of the red spots with a toothpick: [ATTACH=full]1666967[/ATTACH] isn't this horrible! This is the reverse: [ATTACH=full]1666968[/ATTACH] and here the flip which it was in: [ATTACH=full]1666969[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1666970[/ATTACH] After the alcohol procedure: [ATTACH=full]1666971[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1666972[/ATTACH] My attribution is just a wild guess: maybe Iberian from Tamusia? because I see a T and an M below the animal that could be a boar or a horse. On the obverse: Diademed male head to r., dolphin before and behind head AE 22, 9.442 g, 11h Can someone please help me to identify and attribute this coin?[/QUOTE]
