Wow, I like this one even better, Peter. Wonderful selection of beads. What kind of coin is it, please?
Dear Betty; Many thanks for your message. The coin is 215 years old and - featuring on one side the Thugra and on the other side and indication of the minting place, Constantinople (Istanbul) and dates back to the Hijiri 1221, hence, AD1806. With kind regards. Peter
Sorry Betty, the coin is not 215 but 209 years old. Nevertheless, very old indeed. With kind regards. Peter
