    Very attractive dinar, Panzerman. I have this wary eye AE of Badr al-din Lu'lu (Lu'lu means 'pearl'; this ruler was born an Armenian slave). It's dated Mosul, 631 AD (1234 AD), but that's a frozen date used for several years. Weight 6,70 gr., diameter 23,09 mm. Not rare, but it has a a nice patina and a lot of appeal.

    Since you want heat so bad you can have ours lol but you have to promise to send snow down here when it gets cold up there.

    You might not have sharks (the ones down here only eat tourists anyways :vamp::p) but you have bears, like, the man-eating kinds :eek:
