Anyone know what it is?

Alex, I hope it's not too late but my research indicates that this is a Kushan coin.

Hi Areich. My research suggests your research is correct. But it needs more research.

I'll start right away!

Alex,
Maybe you could get back to us in another 2 years so that we can get this matter settled in a timely manner.

It's a bit rude to give Alex such a tight deadline, I think.

THNX in advance.!!
images attached!

Yes, the photo could be better but my first guess is Kaniska 232-260 AD with Mao reverse but missing the legends so ID is not even close to certain. I have a nicer one that cost $15 so I'd say this is on the order of half that.
