Do you by any chance know of a place in Dubai which sells coins or notes? Other than the old souq in Deira, because it sold me lots of counterfeits that I thought were real.

Pheroow Valued Member United Arab Emirates 283 Posts	Posted 06/26/2013 1:48 pm Iran might be an exception, since it's not an Arab country. Thanks for the info Conder :) I don't think SH is that much common as AH. Report this Post to the Staff
skyshark124 Pillar of the Community United States 1109 Posts	Posted 06/26/2013 6:55 pm Once I learned how to read Arab numbers it was easy to read most Middle Eastern coins. Got some in Egypt back in '01 and that's what got me to learn the numbers. Now I have a bunch of piastres from Egypt, a handful of Kuwaiti fils, some Saudi Arabia halalas, a 25 fil coin from the UAE, a 2 franc coin from Tunisia from 1924 (technically Greater Middle East but still...) and a small lot of Israeli shekels. Now the Israeli coin datess...man, those I definitely need the internet for. I'd love to get my hands on more coinage though. I have tons of Afghanis before they revalued the currency. They gave it away over there because it was so worthless. I made them part of my collection as a cool souvenir. Report this Post to the Staff
