An extremely worn copper alloy ancient greek or Hellenistic coin, possibly an Obol or Chalkon of the Ptolomeic dynasty of Egypt. The obverse depicts the bearded head of Zeus Ammon, right. The reverse is entirely illegible and has a small blob of red sealing wax, suggesting the coin was mounted to a board for display. The patina is highly polished from handling and lacks evidence for corrosion. This together with the evidence of mounting suggests a modern "collector's loss", possibly a wartime souvenir brought back from Egypt.

A Roman provincial copper-alloy coin of Tabae, Caria (Turkey), dating to the period AD 253-268. The edge of the flan has been bent and damaged. This is probably recent damage, the coin appearing to have been disturbed by dredging activity, which would both account for its patina (from a waterlogged context) and also suggest it is likely a genuine ancient loss. Obverse: IEPOC ΔHMOC, youthful, laureate, draped bust right; B before. Reverse: TAB-HNΩN, Tyche standing left holding rudder and cornucopiae. Cf.
