Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 09/09/2017 9:25 pm @bob june, neat coins! In the third image, it looks to me like your coin has bronze disease. This is a problem not only for this coin, but there is some evidence that this progressive deterioration can spread to other coins. If you search on the key words bronze disease here on CCF, you will find several good threads about how to treat this coin.

I believe at least a couple of these - and perhaps all - may be ancient imitations (maybe Jouan-Jouan) of Kushan types. Hard to make out the details, but the first and third look like they may be Huvishka or Huvishka imitations. Report this Post to the Staff
