    It is a Greek Cistophoric tetradrachm but the photos are not good enough to say more.

    Thanks! That's more than I had to go off of... Their pictures he sent me via text messages, so not good pics, but I'll post better pics if I buy it.

    Just found this on eBay, and this looks to be the exact coin:


    Ancient Greek Coin Eumenes III - Cistophoric Tetradrachm 133 BC - Silver, Rare
    Aristonikos as Eumenes III, 133-130 BC
