Hi Everyone, No idea what I have, I'm guessing Middle Eastern, Asian or African. That certainly narrows it down:)
Stylized or mythological cat, wavy border. Thanks for looking! Nancy

@NC, I agree Burma. Can you please post a pic of the other side of this coin? In the meanwhile, here is a link to your coin:

Your Burma 25 pyas coin is dated AD 1952.

Johnny Depp wears a Burma coin in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films:
