This is an interesting coin. Apparently three others are known: 1, CNG MBS 73, 2006, 408; 2, Roma e16, 2015, 170; 3, CNG e496, 2021, 175. All of them are referenced SNG Levante 208, which is quite a puzzle, since SNG Levante 208 is actually an uncertain obol with pegasus and an owl!! So it looks like the 2006 piece had a misprinted reference (but for what?), which was then copied by the other two. Fun!!
