Yes its the Kidarite coin similar to the one shown on zeno.ru link.
These coins are generally of debased gold and goes for around $100 minimum here. A coin with higher gold content or with more details will be more valuable. Maybe you can compare listings on ebay and other auction sites to get more idea of price trends in your area.

In Ukraine, such rare coins. There is not often. Do not demand. I was lucky to buy this coin for $ 25. The seller did not know what sells.
My coin is real?
Its difficult to judge that just from images. The weight and diameter are in range and I dont see any indications of it being a cast copy. So probably its not fake.
