Hello

 

Little up for help

 

@Vic65

@Geison

I would like to ask you for a little help.

This coins are a little tricky

You need to compare each character since the bust is useless, they are all almost same

 

I believe this script is no longer in use, so it is difficult for anyone to read it from memory.

 

 

There are (almost) all legends here

Yours might be from the last rulers:

Most of the readable part of the text is just the usual boilerplate, the title of the king and part of the kings father name:
rajno mahakshatrapasa (the name of the father of the king)putrasa

rajno mahakshatrapasa (the name of the king)

 



The kings name should be at 11-1'o clock and the fathers name at 3-5'o clock.
