allranger Pillar of the Community United States 1391 Posts	Posted 08/29/2012 4:47 pm I know nothing about this token but I find it amusing that there is a five point star inside the six point star. Does it look like it was made that way or could it be something someone did after it was minted? Is it the same on both sides? There appears to be writing around the outside but I can't read it with the size of the picture. Can you take a better picture, there are several members who can read Middle East languages and if they had a better picture they maybe able to read enough to identify what it is.

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
