Ancient Greek-Egypt(?) AE Coin Identification [solved]

2 posts • viewed 61 times

Hi all,

 

I'm having difficulty finding an attribution for this coin, so I thought I'd inquire with the community. The obverse appears to me a male facing right. The reverse appears to be either two cornucopiae or a sword and a cornucopia with grape bundles on either side; Letters: BNT, BMT BΠT, or BHT to the right. The cornucopia design looks most similar to the Ptolemaic-styled coins, but I have not been able to find the same reverse on the usual websites or a couple hours of Google image searching. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

 

Diameter: 19.34mm; Thickness: 3.41mm; Weight: 6 grams

Finally found it!  Thanks anyway! :)
