Shazzam New Member Australia 1 Posts	Posted 06/12/2018 12:51 am Hi All Im an Aussie with a middle eastern background who has recently inherited a bunch of coins from my grandfather following his passing. Never was interested in the stuff but I have to admit lately its slowly growing on me. So a quick google search led me here. In terms of interest given that my heritage is from Syria I have been looking at coins from that region. I will eventually post what I have but just wanted to say hello :-) Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 06/12/2018 02:56 am Shazzam: to the CCF I am from Sydney as well; Blacktown area, to be more precise. Coins of the Umayyad Caliphate (661-750 AD) circulated in the area of Syria. They are fairly easy to obtain from coin dealers such as Noble Numismatics in Macquarie Street. A silver Dirham of the Umayyad Caliphate can be bought for around $30, which is quite a reasonable price for a Syrian coin of such antiquity, and relevant to your heritage.
