<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 4848501, member: 26302&quot;]Yes, those are unusual pieces sir. I believe, (just a thought at first sight), that these would be local imitations. They really do have the main features, the base at the bottom the king&#039;s bust, the vertical column where the king&#039;s neck, face, and crown would be, and the two or three round objects behind representing the balls of hair shown on early Sassanian coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Look at the one to the immediate right of these two. You can easily see the prototype. Therefor, I would guess an Eastern imitative, maybe Kushan or Hunnic related, or simply a local issue.</p><p><br /></p><p>Btw, sorry if we were bidding on some same lots. I always feel bad if I outbid a fellow CTer. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
