Have what appears to be an Aceh Gold coin, width is 1.2cm Anyone knows what date to attribute to this coin or which ones are rarer or are they all the same ?
Sorry not my area of expertise. I always go straight to "A Checklist of Islamic Coins" by Stephen Album whenever I see arabic script. Unfortunately, at least in my second edition of this book, he doesn't cover northern Sumatra. I did find a similar coin on the world of coins forum. It had the following description:
"Here is a Kupang of Atcheh.
'Ala al din Ri'ayat Shah (AD 1530-1568 or 1537-1571)"
"If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb
"The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz
