What are the names of these coins and the stick? Also, can someone tell me if they are real or not? I can provide more photos of them or more information (weight, raduis etc.) if it is necessary.

Which implies this is actually a seal of some kind, and the toughra would be normal-looking on the stamp or impression from the seal. As for the coins, I would assume they are replicas until proven otherwise. They would both be extremely valuable if genuine, and extremely unlikely to just be "found" together, as they are a hundred years apart in origin and would never have "circulated" together. 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
