Hi everyone!
I couple of years ago I bought a Tibetan coin made into a necklace at a local market in Lhasa. I know nothing about it or about coins, but I am curious. Are there some knowledgeable persons out there?

Ok so scratch that, Tibet Ranjana Thangka coin looks similar. Here's a link, http://www.ngccoin.com/price-guide/...-duid-288781

I'm certain it's a Tangka coin, but not the exact one listed above. There are quite a few similar designs from that area of the world. Is there any chance of a bit more of a close up image? With the loop whole at 12 O clock please.

Too coin community :).

It does looks similar!
I found one that might be even more alike, but not exactly the same. The one called SE1712.
