I will agree with Eftihis about the possible origin from Epirus in North Greece.
About the design one possible explanation is:
The woman figure possibly a "goddess" or ''Greece'' sits on war trophies and holds at each hand Amalthea's horn.
I wish I could help more.
All the best.
Ilias

Hi Ilias
Thanks for your help.
Your explanation of the design is exatly the kind of thing I was hoping for.
Is Greece often represented by a woman, like Britain by Britannia?
Britannia is also often represented in similar fashion: War trophies, shield, spear and Lion.
Do the eagles have a special meaning for Greece?
I know of course of the double headed eagle symbol and isn't there a connection between zeus and two eagles?
Anyway, as you can imagine I am very pleased that this seems to have a good chance of being Greek. It's origin was unidentified by the dealer and I made the assumption that it was (partly because I really wanted a Greek one!)
Best
