I am desperate. I looked through Delestrees and Latour and I cannot find this coin. I am not sure, but the revers seems to show a human headed horse right. The obverse is a mystery to me.

Please help me to identify this coin. I believe it is not common.

Thanks to all.

Hello. Your coin seems very similar to some of the Baiocasses BI staters. I don't have the references to see if this exact type was made in bronze but, the style seems almost exact. I've linked two examples below of the BI version and a bronze? issue where the reverse style is slightly less degraded

You are very right!!! I can see many details of the obverse on the sample 2 you gave me. But mine is made of bronze… I will investigate that…
