    Hello. I just acquired this first coin in 2015. So weird, it has clearly a Greek lettering but the king on the obverse is not Greek at all. There are also many animals which seem to be in a sort of a park or a zoo.. I don't know. The coin weighs 16.03 g . I await your precious comments. Thanks.. Charles Parth O.jpg Parth R.jpg

    I have no idea but it looks horribly tooled to me. I could be wrong.

    I don't believe it to be ancient at all. I have seen it somewhere before and believe it to be from crude modern dies. I am still searching for the previous example.

    It's not ancient - some sort of modern fantasy piece. I've seen it before, but I can't remember where...
