Uncertain Seleukeia, Asia Minor. Pseudo-autonomous AE14 (2.15 g), late 2nd to early 3rd Century AD.
Obv. Laureate head of Herakles right, club behind.
Rev. CЄΛЄYKЄ, eagle standing facing, wings spread.

Apparently unpublished. Good very fine.

An enigmatic coin, surely from Asia Minor but apparently unknown in the literature. The most likely mint is Seleukeia in Cilicia, where the short CЄΛЄYKЄ legend occurs on rare pre-imperial coins (cf. SNG Aulock 5817) and Herakles is often displayed as a reverse type on coins under Roman rule. No other such pseudo-autonomous issue from Seleukeia is known, however, so the attribution remains uncertain.
