I bought this coin while in Bosnia in the year 2000. It looked interesting and I have not been able to find anything about this coin.

It's a tourist fake, in the wrong metal, of a tetradrachm of the Baktrian king Eukratides. The jugate busts are of Heliokles and Laodike. The reverse legend is HΛIOKΛEOYΣ (above), KAI ΛAOΔIKH below.
