dslobo New Member United States 16 Posts	Posted 07/18/2024 7:10 pm I'm not quite sure where to start identifying this coin. This forum has been very useful in the past. The coin is 26mm x 1mm (thin) and weighs 5.2g. Report this Post to the Staff

The coin-o-scope app correctly got me in the right neighborhood by identifying this as being from TIbet. Here is a link to a 5 Skar that looks a lot like your coin: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces40861.html "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
