O: Diademed and bearded bust l., R: King enthroned r., holding bow and arrow at r., monogr, Greek legend. Ecbatana mint. Sellwood 78.5. 20 mm, 3.8 g

Thanks to BobL for help with the attribution, I (and the seller) had it wrong.

I am watching a couple of these on V-coins... nice coin type and seem good value for money. Yours looks very shiny and new for such an old coin, super crisp details and no wear... good job!
