unearth Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Did a little bit of detecting today and found this...can anybody tell me what this, I think it's a coin, is? What country it may be from? What year? Thanks in advance for any help identifying this object. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alluminati Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 It looks like it might be Hebrew? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PseudoShooter Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I thought it was Arabic script myself. No apparent numerical date so then I thought it might be a token. Did a Google search for "bronze Arabic token" Found this: https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=119853 The OP in that post states the date on his token as "1330" which would be correct for the Muslim calendar (so not the 14th century in this case). Some replies suggested it was Iranian, possibly a celebration or wedding token. Did a Google search for "Iranian Wedding Token" Found one: https://coinquest.com/cgi-bin/cq/coins.pl?coin=20728 I think that's it. Whew. Gotta love the Google machine ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasquatch Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Good call Pseudo. This one looks only slightly different from Unearth's. Neat find, what part of the world are you detecting in? https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=80510 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
