<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2677909, member: 42773&quot;]If you really want to read these coins, and many other Eastern issues, the book you want is <i>Greek, Semitic, Asiatic Coins And How To Read Them</i>, by Richard J. Plant. I took a pic of the page that expounds on the Brahmi. I will not deceive you into thinking it&#039;s easy. I&#039;m not fluent with these types - I&#039;ve only read a few, and I have to compare every figure on the coin with Plant&#039;s text and his subsequent examples. Sometimes it&#039;s impossible to narrow down the ruler by inscription alone, if the coin is struck in such a way that only the titles show. At any rate, knock yourself out...</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]597851[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>There are a couple members of the forum that could look at your coin and tell you immediately what it was.
