Islamic or Armenian?
« on: November 18, 2015, 07:25:51 am »
Dear Board,
A friend has sent me the pictures of this coin.
AE 30-32!  Around 14.00-16.00 g. weight.
Could you please help me to identify this coin!
Thank you in advance.

If you do a search you should find examples.  It is a fairly common coin.  Just look up Kushan coins.
