paul27613 Valued Member United States 152 Posts	Posted 10/31/2015 10:47 pm My best guess is Yazid II, 720-724 AD, AR dirham. Anyone skilled in Umayyad coins care to comment? This is the first time I have tried a coin picture with the smartphone and it turned out better than I expected. Thanks! Paul Report this Post to the Staff

Paul, how does the edge look? Edited by Kamnaskires 11/01/2015 12:00 am Report this Post to the Staff

paul27613 Valued Member United States 152 Posts	Posted 11/01/2015 11:10 pm Hey! All excellent responses. Thank you! Oh, as for the edge, it is a thin silver coin, so is there something in particular you are asking about? Report this Post to the Staff
Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 11/01/2015 11:32 pm I was just curious about what looks like seams, Paul. I'm not familiar with the fabric of these issues...perhaps it's nothing. Edited by Kamnaskires 11/01/2015 11:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
