I assumed the writing was arabic, but I really don't know. Dated 2005, so definitely no ancient relic of a coin ( ), but I'm interested to know what it is. Here's a couple of pics: Thanks in advance. :) Report this Post to the Staff

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 05/24/2008 12:16 pm Definitely Pakistan from the inscription, but my 2008 Krause is incomplete. I'll guess the value is 5 Rupees. Report this Post to the Staff

BobK Valued Member United States 177 Posts	Posted 05/24/2008 5:33 pm My Krause (Collecting World Coins 11th Edition, copyright 2006) has a Pakistan 5 rupees, KM# 65, that looks just like it. The book only lists it to 2004, though, but it does have 2005 1 and 2 rupee coins. Report this Post to the Staff
