echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 10/26/2019 01:36 am I agree Cilician Armenia. The second image is the obverse and is upside down. Coin can use some cleaning but I believe it's Hetoum I. Report this Post to the Staff
Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 10/26/2019 07:54 am Ron - the reasons I didn't go with Hetoum I were that the figure seems to be sitting on a bench rather than throne, and also because he holds - to our left - a cross, not a fleur, and to the right it looks like a lily rather than a globus cruciger. Perhaps there are Hetoum varieties that fit, however? Here are four Oshin reverses (above) and a comparison of the OP with two Levon IV's below.
