Imasnore Valued Member Canada 360 Posts	Posted 04/14/2012 8:27 pm This is a zinc coin about 29.5 mm and a reeded like edge. I can not determine the country or year. Any ideas where to look? Identified - title edited - Sap Report this Post to the Staff

svslav Pillar of the Community United States 2605 Posts	Posted 04/14/2012 9:55 pm The date that I see is 1325 (AD 1907), which is not necessarily the date of issue. Doesn't look like a coin to me, rather a token. I'll try to figure out more. Report this Post to the Staff
Imasnore Valued Member Canada 360 Posts	Posted 04/14/2012 10:30 pm Once again my father sometimes put the tokens he had with the coins...I tried to find an Arabic Coin denomination 1 made of zinc. No luck. I will try google, too. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16834 Posts	Posted 04/15/2012 12:23 am Yep, that's what it is. Malayan state of Trengganu, 1 cent, dated AH 1325 = 1907 but actually struck about 1920, KM# 20. NGC data page. 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

Sap Moderator Australia 16834 Posts	Posted 04/15/2012 6:45 pm You're not alone there, Imasnore. I've never seen one of these before either. I probably would've thought "weird Arabic token" if I'd stumbled upon it in a dealer's scratchtray.
