Ancient Coin
I didn't find this detecting, but it has been in my collection for years. I would like to know as much as I can about this coin. I will settle however for what it is and where it comes from.

Coin
I can't locate this coin anywhere. It appears to be of midevil design. Maybe Anne or some of our friends at COVMOLES may be able to identify it.
Let's give it a try. I'll post it on their site and see what we come up with.

It has a Celtic look about it but is not quite right.

That's okay Pappy,went to do it and found you had beaten me to it.
It has an Aribic feel to it. I have looked in some of my books but so far no joy,will keep looking,hopefully someone will tell you what it is.

I have been advised by Porkus on the CovMoles Forum that your coin is a ISLAMIC DIRHAM and you can find it by doing a google search...THANKS PORKUS !

Sent an email with pictures to the owner of a website that deals with Indian coins and this is the reply I got. "Your coin is a base silver deb (or half rupee) from Bhutan, c.1820-35, ref KM 3."
