Hi, can someone translate this text or identify the characters? It is a stamp in my possession.
Thank you very much.

It says 漢委奴國王
It is writing found on a gold seal that was discovered in Japan in the 18th century. There are various theories about what the letters mean (the Japanese wiki entry provides more scope for interpretation than the English entry)
