Spence Moderator United States 34444 Posts	Posted 01/27/2017 9:03 pm Interesting piece. It mentions Muhammad on the first pics and being made in Tunis on the second pic, but this isn't like any other Tunisian coin that I have seen. The last two digits of the date are garbled somewhat, but it starts off with 12.

Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 01/29/2017 9:53 pm The date may not be garbled. The 4 and 9 look Malay-Persian instead of what we commonly see instead of Arabic-Turkish. Report this Post to the Staff
