There are a lot of differences between Greek coins and Indian ones. Get a book about world coins, and you can learn a lot about how to identify coins.
The Greeks were actually the first to make coins. The Lydians invented them in about 670 BC. The first coin to be minted outside of Anatolia (modern day turkey) however, was the Aginian turtle. Since then greek coins have always been being minted in almost every city/ Formerly city-state.
Indian coins typically feature symbols or images specific to Indian culture, history, or religious beliefs, while Greek coins often depict mythological figures, gods, or scenes from Greek mythology. Indian coins may also include inscriptions in regional languages, while Greek coins usually have inscriptions in ancient Greek. Additionally, Indian coins were traditionally made of gold, silver, or copper, while Greek coins were commonly made of silver or bronze.
