sukie_bapswent New Member United Kingdom 17 Posts	Posted 04/06/2014 4:54 pm Hi, I wonder if anyone could help. I think this is a crusader coin... but I cant really get any further in my identification! I'd appreciate any help or advice. Report this Post to the Staff

Petrus Pillar of the Community Belgium 2895 Posts	Posted 04/06/2014 5:11 pm Do you have better picture? I seem to recognize a crown right side under the crown looks like hair. Is it possible the left under the crown is damaged? If you have better picture it should be possible to search for the inscriptions Seems templar cross, mediëval writing Report this Post to the Staff
sukie_bapswent New Member United Kingdom 17 Posts	Posted 04/06/2014 6:11 pm Aaah yes I see the crown now! I had been seeing an M. Unfortunately I don't have a chance to get better pictures for a bit, but I will post some as soon as I can (its a tricky coin to capture, the more so as all I had to hand was my phone camera).

Petrus Pillar of the Community Belgium 2895 Posts	Posted 04/07/2014 10:57 am Can you put the coin on a scanner and scan high resolution? You may send me the scanned picture. Sometimes more details are visible when you put a light, thin paper on the coin and rub it with a pencil. What are the dimensions of the coin? Report this Post to the Staff

Your coin intrigues me so much that I will try to find an identification! You'll find my email if you click my name Report this Post to the Staff
philadelphian Pillar of the Community United States 3253 Posts	Posted 04/07/2014 1:17 pm I'm seeing the cross potent that starts the obverse legend between the left and middle points of the crown, followed by TRI. Tripoli? The last letters don't spell out TRIPOLIS, though; they seem to be GRA? Report this Post to the Staff
