<p>[QUOTE="Parthicus, post: 26114584, member: 81887"]I have been informed by [USER=98035]@Finn235[/USER] that my instinct that coin #2 might be an imitative later issue is correct. It was actually issued by the Huns in Sindh during the post-Gupta period, in imitation of the coinage of Skandagupta. And the object on the reverse is actually a trident of Shiva, not an altar. Guess this is a good reminder to always do yoru own research and don't trust auction descriptions too much.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
