Steve D'Ippolito Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have friends whose family came from Afghanistan, and they are hoping for some help in identifying the following. Object 1 doesn't appear to me to be a coin. Object 2 is more interesting to me, looks like a coin but what? Objects 3 and 4 are corroded and I've little hope of identifying them from pictures, but here goes. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlueke Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Object one reminds me of the Alchon hun pieces but I agree probably not a coin, kind of looks like a button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlueke Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 The second one does look like a Hunnic minor piece though I don't recognize that tamgha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
