Hello again!
I was given that ancient greek coin by my friend recently. I have my guesses as to what it may be, but I'm not sure.
Also could that be a countermark on the horse, or just damage?
Any help? Thanks :)
20mm and 5.34 grams
Here are some pics:

Oh it’s definitely not that one, the bust is helmeted and the face shape is different

After adjusting the image, I see what you mean, I see a figure riding the horse (possibly holding a spear?)

Yea, I get it, I thought that it might be Larissa, because of the horseman with a Spear and the weight/diameter are simillar

Again, it is simillar, but no helmet. I'm starting to think that the coin is so worn that hair looks like a helmet 😆

With your example, the horse‘s shape looks different to me upon closer inspection
