A nice Silver Coin, it has an obverse character derived from Sanskrit or Pali that has been interpreted as meaning Fortitude or Strength. Natural dark age-patina, it weighs 2.4 grams with an incuse square design on the reverse - suggesting it is derived from the ancient Greek Standard of a "drachm".....which standard Alexander the Great took to ancient India. As Indian Hindu and Buddhist Priests were taken to Java and converted most of the populace from the 6-9th C. AD, (think: the Great Temple of Borobudur) and these have been found mostly from there to Surabaya, this all fits together neatly and dates the coin to that period of religious growth. Very Rare outside of that region, with this being one of the best of the few I have seen there.
