Abbasid Lead Coin?
« on: July 22, 2006, 01:39:07 pm »
Hi,

Please, help me with this one. What is this? Coin, seal or weight?

Lead, 17x21 mm.

It is really very interesting, i don't know about the other friends but i saw it first in my lifetime. My personel comment about it is to be a seal, because on one of the face i could read Mohammed Rasulallah.I think this sentence couldn't be used on weights... But it is a fact that, we shouldn't ignore it to be a kind of coin.( if we consider, there are Byzantine lead coins minted in Crimea at the same period)

sincerely..
