AlRashid Valued Member Canada 167 Posts	Posted 11/06/2018 11:06 pm Hi All Does anyone know this coin or can ID it? This coin is 3.75 gram but the style looks odd and crude. Also the metal doesn't seem like silver but more like lead. I appreciate opinion on this. Report this Post to the Staff

(though to me this just looks like an old silver coin, and a very nice one!) Edited by tdziemia 11/07/2018 07:55 am Report this Post to the Staff

louisvillekyshop CCF Advertiser United States 1306 Posts	Posted 11/10/2018 11:50 pm If you have no time to wait and needed to sell the coin in an open auction it is always best to check sold items in past sales searching ebay. Not sales people made offers on or anything like that. Ones where you see there were many bids. That is what the coin is currently worth usually. If you are willing to wait for a buyer like vcoins or buy it now with a fixed price you can get 2x the amount, or even 3 x but you have to wait a bit. Here is one that sold int he UK from an auction with many bids. https://www.ebay.com/itm/ISLAMIC-Ar...047675.l2557 Report this Post to the Staff
