    @dougsmit is correct. I will add the details as I know them.

    Yaudheya Republic, Punjab, 3rd century AD, Copper Unit

    Obv: Karttikeya (God of War) standing facing, holding a filleted sceptre/spear in right hand, left hand on hip, peacock on left, circular legend around in Brahmi: Yaudheya Ganasya Jaya ("Victory to the Yaudheya People").

    Rev: Within a dotted circular border: Goddess standing facing left, wearing transparent garment, left hand on hip, right hand raised in blessing, blank fields.

    Ref: Mitchener ACW 4707-4710
    cf. India » Local post-Kushan coinages of Northern India (c. 100 - 460AD) » Post-Kushan Yaudhey
