Question
sir, can you please help me in identifying this coin? on one side, there is a star and crescent in the center as seen in Pakistani coins with Arabic written on top. other side has two crossed swords in the centre. the material is copperand is the size of a 1/12 anna from india . this image is not shown at worldcoingalerry.com
Hi Rajagopal, is there any other writing or a date on it?
If you have pictures (not over 1 megabyte each please) you can email them to me at tbirde@psknet.com.
You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
