Sap Moderator Australia 16809 Posts	Posted 11/14/2021 11:12 pm Ah, I can help with this one. It's not actually a coin, but rather an "Indian temple token". This one is Islamic (we still call them "temple tokens", even though Muslims don't have "temples"). You can find many similar items on this zeno.ru page. 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
