    A friend has asked me to help ID a number of coins he acquired some years ago. Most I have cracked, but a few are giving me a headache - can you help?

    I have very little to go on with this one - brass or copper, measures about 24mm at the longest and weighs 15.4g.

    It looks like a Kushan Empire Æ Tetradrachm. Someone here should be able to help you. I found a similar one on acsearch. Looks like your coin saw plenty of hands.
