As far as making useful images, I'd recommend putting your camera in its close-up mode and get as near as you can to begin with. Then use the "Free Image Optimizer" feature to crop your shot before uploading it.

I cropped and sharpened the pics a bit. Maybe this will help:

I don't know if the orientations are correct, but my best guess is that it is Arabic of some sort. I don't know who to contact if that's the case, sorry.

Could be Mamluk, Ayyubid or other. Kushanshah is the go-to guy for these. Hopefully this thread catches his attention.

I think you'd be safe reposting the coin in the Ancients/Medieval section of CCF. If Mamluk or similar, I suspect it is pre-1600, the cutoff for coins posted there. I think Kushanshah may spot it in that corner of CCF, assuming he doesn't see it here.

I'm afraid I don't know. Mamluks is as good a guess as any.

Any suggestions where I can take it or show it? Is it even worth for me to go after?

Nothing else for you to do but wait for more comments. Hopefully you will not wait long.
