found this worn out little guy in a big bulk lot, I dont have the heart to toss him out!

not much detail at all but hopefully someone will recognize the leaf (?)

it is 20mm (aprx the size of a nickel) and as thin as a dime @ 1.75 grams.

thank you

Islamic AE Fals, probably one of the central Asian dynasties. Not so much the wreath but the internal design gives it away, looks like a lobed square. I'll work on it later.

Agreed Libya. I had been thinking it was Golden Horde AE, similar outside patterns to some Sarai/New Sarai fals.
