Crusader obol to ID!!!

[Canaan]

Any help would be most appreciated regarding this Crusader coin, i think it is from the kingdom of Jerusalem Baldwin III??? It is 17 mm and 0.45 grams.

Hi Canaan,

I think your hunch is correct.

On the obverse, I see: "...VS REX..."

On the reverse, I see: "...IERVSAL..."

Here is my example (scroll down, second coin):

Hi Canaan,

It may actually be a Church of the Holy Sepulchre issue (my third coin in that page).

The structure on the reverse looks more like that building.

The reverse needs to be rotated about 160 degrees clockwise.

On the obverse, I think I see: "...RICVS REX..."

Thanks Meep i think you nailed it, but it is an obol with this low weight.
