thai-vic Pillar of the Community Thailand 1509 Posts	Posted 12/28/2010 04:24 am 1,000 something. AH1387(1967). 23mm. 5.85g. approx. Aluminium-brass(?). Can anyone help with country, km#? Thanks in advance. Identified - moved to World Coins forum - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 12/28/2010 04:37 am The units definitely rials (Iran). So, I'd say Iran 1000 rials SH 1387 (AD 2008). In my Krause (2010!) Iran doesn't go beyond 2007, and the last denomination was 500 rials. (But in 2007 they switched from Cu-Ni to Alum-Bronze.) So someone else would have to give you KM# (you may have to wait for it couple of years). Report this Post to the Staff

NPCoin Valued Member United States 108 Posts	Posted 12/28/2010 1:07 pm The 100 rials are minted in aluminum-bronze with a diameter of just slightly smaller than 23mm and weighs in little more than 1 gram lighter. So, I would doubt it is aluminum-bronze. A cupro-nickel coin, however, has the specifications you give (23mm@5.85g). The SH1388(2009) 1000 rial is designated KM#1272 in cupro-nickel with your size/weight specifications. Perhaps Krause just hasn't received verification of the SH1387 dated coin.
