I can't make out the lettering on the obverse. Is this an imitation or a modern fake?
I couldn't find an Azes II series coin that looked similar to it either.

I'm not able to make out much of the legend, but based on the control mark I believe it's Indo-Parthian of Abdagases.

In terms of real vs. fake, it looks fine to me, but I would defer to @echizento on that.
