Greek-Hellenic coin [solved]

5 posts • viewed 91 times

I'm at a loss here and I'm looking - does anyone have an idea. Does anyone know?

Bronze, 15.94mm, 2.19g

I read the letters:

ΣT  KN

 

A man is holding something in his hand ( Or a woman?)

Is it a harp-musical instrument?

Hello,

No idea what the coin is, but can say that i think that it is a lute that what he or she is holding. I think it is Greek because of lettering, but could be wrong. Cool coin!

Not an exact match, but it leads to the right track.

 

Found two close matches in Wildwinds, I think the second one is better, listed there as SNG France 1536.
