Unknown Ae 18.44mm 1.5g Radiant Circle/Sun? Mamluk?
« on: January 31, 2015, 06:56:04 am »
I am having a difficult time identifying this interesting Ae 18.44mm 1.5g.  On the obverse, there appears to be a radiant sun.  It appears to be Arabic script.  Could it be Mamluk?  Pogh_poor

This is a rare follis of the Mamluk al-Nasir Muhammad , no mint or date
but supposed to be from Hama mint.

 I have a similar one, no ref till the moment, which means Unlisted in major Mamluk books.
