arabic lion coin

« on: September 30, 2012, 09:33:08 PM »

hey ,just today i found my first hammy Grin

or thats what i think it is. its very thin and i can tell its not milled. on one side it has two lions on either side of a shield with the english flag on it. and i think a knights helmets on top but im not sure and then on the other side it has arabic writing,it maybe a east india coin or "cash"as its called and since the east india company was founded in 1601 and the coin i found is hammered it could be Huh

but i doubt that as i found it in a field in worcestshire miles away from any ports any sorry for the poor pictures they were taken my phone

After a lot of reasreach i have found out that it is in fact a east india coin and was minted for singapore which was then owned by them but its still a good find but not a hammy Sad
