    Description

    This ancient Greek bronze coin weighs 0.8 grams and was minted in the city of Histiaia in the island of Euboia between 146-196 BC. The obverse features a nymph and the reverse a serpent. This coin belongs to the historical period of Greek civilization and represents an important era of ancient history. It is ungraded and uncertified, but its provenance is unfortunately unknown. This is a great opportunity for collectors and history enthusiasts to own a piece of ancient Greek history.
    I am torn between a Estaia with a Nymph on a Prom of a ship or a Phokaia with a Rev. Griffin. Either way in bronze and in this condition it a great coin to own.
