TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 1:18 pm I received this coin with an uncleaned lot about a year ago. It has been soaking. I have casually had my eye out for it. So far no luck. It is done with its soaking and I would like to ID it. Can anyone out there put me on the right track? Please and thank you!

TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 3:41 pm It weighs 2.04 grams and is 15.9 mm wide. I was thinking Byzantine also. I have looked a little but was hoping for bit more direction:) Report this Post to the Staff
jessvc1 Pillar of the Community United States 2596 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 7:27 pm Thats an interesting coin! I dont think I've seen any like it so I will have to look around for another example. It looks like maybe stars and rays or a wheel on one side. The other image almost looks like the all seeing eye or maybe a star and crescent? Report this Post to the Staff

TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 01/28/2012 01:33 am Yeah. I just spent the evening looking through wildwind's Byzantines and I am not seeing it. Maybe something Islamic or Judea? Report this Post to the Staff
