Hello to all, i think this is a Septimius/Abgar coin, but no luck finding a match to it, confirmation and if possible references would help alot. 19mm and 4.16 grams.Thanks

Without better images it is hard to determine a reference for your coin -- lots of possibles at http://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/search/advanced/ searching Septimius + Abgar (king).

Thanks Pekka and Archivum, i will try to clean it slightly maybe some of the legend will help in referencing. Any ways i think that Pekka's example is very close to mine.
