    oh no, its like 11 grams. its about an ae 3. Reminds me of Kushan coins because of the thickness and metal.

    Well worth it I'd say! Nice pickups Randy. I especially like the Postumus.

    The weight fits Kushan Tets that are that worn, but I don't think it is Kushan...

    I would look India, around the Mauryan period.

    RG: nice coins, but I'm partial to the Postumus.

    Ty
    Coins of Postumus seem to have allot of good portraits, I'm surprised to find them so cheap.


    The closest id I have for the other is KASU KANARESE, but not that close. Puts me in a general direction though
