Hello, dear collectors!
I have acquired a coin. At first, I thought it was like
but however, the “X” and the “W” next to the trident (or maybe “M” and “X”) are missing on the back.
Is this a variation in my case, or have I purchased a fake?
(To clarify: I'm still a novice in the field of numismatics.)
Here are the technical details:
- Material: bronze
- Caria/Mylasa, 3rd-2nd century BC
- Front: horse walking to the right
- Back: ornamented trident with head down
- Diameter: ca. 12,7 mm
- Weight: ca. 1,6g

I appreciate any information and thank you in advance!
