Curiousmarcus Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Hi. I recived a, what I belive to be an very old coin. I do not know any details about the coin, except that it was given to me from a close friend in Crete. (They juse this sort of coins as Amulets) And I am very eager to learn more about this coin. Sorry, completly new to this, how do I post a picture. Got it on my iphone. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

constanius Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 It appears to just be a tourist piece, for use as a key fob & chain, not a genuine byzantine coin. I am no expert but I believe I am right, sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrus Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 What is on the other side? Looks like a coin of the Seljuqs of Rum (Anatolia) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/seljuq_dynasty]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/seljuq_dynasty See: http://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=145878&cat=all&ppuser=2181 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
