    Hi,

    Not seen anything like this before, can't even discern if the characters are latin, some look like they're not. Norse?

    India, KUMARAGUPTA I 414-455 AD or a Gupta relative (since I am not really up on the Guptas). The key here is the garuda bird on the reverse (rotate 1/4 turn to the left to restore the top to the top).
