Islamic coins not in my collecting
area, but I could not stop myself not to buy this unusual,
rare coin with a
good provenance . And surprisingly, I got the coin quite
cheap compared to other examples that I found on the Internet . It will be very interesting to know the translation of the
legend on the
reverse.
