Sap Moderator Australia 16826 Posts	Posted 04/08/2019 8:45 pm My initial assumption would be an Iranian "civic copper", as this coin series has an extensive range of depictions of animals and other symbols, not usually found on "Islamic" coins. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
Jay1234 Valued Member United States 379 Posts	Posted 04/10/2019 12:02 pm @Sap: This definitely looks like it could be an Iranian civic copper coin. After looking through the standard catalogs back to the 1600's this coin looks a little more "crude" than those listings. I wonder if it is a civic copper but just predates the 1600's?
