Iravan or Mashhad? [επιλυμένο]

4 αναρτήσεις • προβλήθηκε 75 φορές

 

I've found this coin but I have some trouble for its identification. 

It seems both this one:

N#98368

and this one:

N#194924

Are they the same coin?

The lettering of my coin appears to me very similar but the elephant rider is to the right…

(like in this picture: https://www.numisbids.com/sale/3628/lot/992)

So, is it an Armenian or a Persian coin? Or the same coin circulating in Armenia too? Or there is a mistake in Numista catalogue and it doesn't match with Iravan (Erevan)?

Mashad seems a closer match. There are a couple of similar ones on Zeno, even with the same date:

Your coin bears the legend falus zarb mashhad

Thank you all for your kind answers! So, in your opinion, there's no possibility this coin had been circulating in Armenia too?
