I listened to several episodes this weekend. I enjoyed all of them, getting some of the big names to do interviews really adds a lot to the...
The writing is meant to be Arabic. I think it is a fantasy piece, to imitate a coin from the Ottoman empire.
I'll see you there Penny Lady. And yes it does open at 10am both days.
Those are nice examples of the Spalapathi Deva type, which I understand is from the general period 750-850 AD. I couldn't give an opinion on how...

No, Mike Ellis is now working on his own.
Its probably a 10 riyals, KM27 (Yemen). The date only looks like 1990, it is really 1995.
That clipped coin is a 1 reale (I'm guessing based on relative size) from Spain, 1737. Not sure which mint, probably Sevilla.
