    Nice Bactrian camel example JA. I need to spend some more time on my Kushan bronzes. I bought the remainder of the collection of the author who published the latest Kushan reference. Between that and my previous pieces, I have a pretty decent sized collection.

    I really love Bactrian camel pieces. I have these, (2 sizes), 2 different Sogdian pieces, the Trajan piece, a few indo-greek issues, a couple of Parthian bronzes and I believe one hunnic issue. Those are the main issues I am aware of with Bactrian camels off the top of my head.

    I got this coin in the mail last week, it was a 5 buck (with shipping) special form ebay, looks like it is a Kushan AE of Kujula Kadphises indeed!

    I've noticed that. A challenge, then. I'm cool with the occasional challenge.
