Ancient coins with Armenian letters

Western Roman empire coin with the Armenian alphabet

Sasanian empire coin with the Armenian alphabet

Coins from the ancient Bactrian empire, which spread from the Caspian to the Himalayas. Some of their seals and symbols were the swastika, the 8 or 10-sided star, and even the 6-pointed hexagram (Israelite) star. Very interesting set of letters they were using.
