    Description

    This genuine ancient coin is a very rare Half Unit of Indo Scythian origin and features Heracles on the obverse and a horseman on the reverse.
    The Indo-Scythians (also called Indo-Sakas) were a group of nomadic people of Scythian origin who migrated from Central Asia southward into the northwestern Indian subcontinent: the present-day South Asian regions of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and northern India. The migrations persisted from the middle of the second century BCE to the fourth century CE. (See photos)
    The coin is a great addition to any collection of ancient coins.
