Another new arrival yesterday.
Mauryan AR Karshapana
13.5mm x 12.5mm 3.20g
Obv. Sun, caduceus, 6 arm symbol, tree, bull
Rev. Faint marks (bankers?)

I am traversing a slender limb here with self attribution.
Going by the shape of part of the 6 armed symbol.

G&H 507a V XIII A 21b, which if correct would be a bonus as it is listed as XR from hoard M4126. However, as mentioned in G&H, thousands of the PMC's that are traded each year are never recorded.

So hopefully the branch I am on at the moment doesn't break, but should it, I know you will let me down gently!

It looks to me like 507: dog/ spear/ hourglass. 507a would be dog/ spear/ taurine.

Yes, I see what you mean. ...To me now, sitting on the top edge of the coin, it looks like neither. However, it shall be a 507. I appreciate your input.
