Any clue about this arab-byzantine coin? I've tried to find something similar but I didn't see any coin with this strange "M" on the reverse. I apprecieate any help
This one is also Goodwin type E (standing emperor/ cursive m); Album 3504. Goodwin's categories are very broad, assigning the coins to a Byzantine prototype. In the case of this and the first coin today, earlier issues of Constans II.
@Kushanshah, thanks for help. I don't have Goodwin's book and I couldn't find any info about it on the Internet but maybe you know when this type was minted?
