Hi all;
I am posting this lead item:
16,5 mm
4,5 g
I am wondering if it's Hebrew Tessera ?? because the legend especially on the Rev.in ex.looks like hebrew letters ??...
Thanks for any help.
Regards.
Nassif

Salem Alshdaifat:
I think it is Armaiac since the first letter is Mem in Armaiac not Hebrew.

Nassif:
No problem even 1% regarding any doubt concerning authenticity with me ;) with coins and others...may be you can't believe me,but i have a feeling even if it's not my field...I saw huge amount of fakes daily with dealers and on the internet,but my policy at Forum like elsewhere is to NEVER give opinion on coins or artifacts....NEVER...I keep my opinion for myself...  8)
Regarding those items:The Indo Greek kingdoms have used aramaic legends on their coinages...
