    I don't thin it's a coin that was intended for use with a monetary value,
    looks more like a commemorative medallion. IMHO

    It's possible that you'll have more luck if you ask the moderators to move this to World Coins. (Edit: you can do this by clicking the Report link under your post, and typing your request in the popup.)

    I don't recognize this script, and now my curiosity is piqued.

    I just did, tnx for the tip.
    Im very curious too, I did a lot of research but I didn't find anything that looks like this one. My original guess was its an old Israeli coin, but after doing some research im not so sure!

    I doubt its a commemorative medallion cz all it has is a script, no pictures of any person or events for that matter. But im beginning to think its not intended for use with monetary monetary too.

    I would say, Soviet Georgia (Republic of Georgia now).

    Every time I see 1666 I think of the Great Fire of London. But there were a few other world events...do any of this strike a chord?

    I looked at that earlier and was thinking it may be related to the first printed version of the bible translated to Armenian.

    Others beat me to it but the lettering is Armenian and the date 1666 probably refers to the date of the first printed bible in Armenia.

    I "thin" you could be correct. :)
