Islamic? India? Pakistan?
« on: November 14, 2016, 12:27:26 pm »
Hello,
This one has me stumped. It appears to me to be Islamic of some sort.

Bronze
21mm max
3.1 grams

Any help or direction (Area/era) would be appreciated.
Thank you

Hello, i think it is an Ummayad fals from the 8th century AD, search under this topic and you will find similar coins.

All I can tell you about this coin , due to its grade
is ;

Omayyad or Abassid  Felus or Fi' lls .


@ Canaan , there is a possibility to be Abbasid ( Fels is not clear )
Same type of letter was used by Abbasid (  the Bass'ra ones ).

Pleasure to talk with you Canaan.

Thanks alot Sam the same here, it is true it can also be Abbasid but i tended to think in Umayyad due to the writing or font especially in the word لا in لا اله الا الله if you can see how it is spiral like some Ummayad issues.
