<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sehkmet22, post: 371091, member: 5526&quot;]One of my coworkers has what appears to be a 1950 (AH 370) Saudi Arabian Riyal which was made into a necklace after it was given to her father-in-law as a gift by a &quot;shah&quot; (most likely a Saudi Prince) who was visiting the US and used her father-in-law as a translator. This event likely occurred in the 1950s.</p><p><br /></p><p>However, it appears to be gold. Krause only lists a silver Riyal coin of this style and date. </p><p>One other small caveat, flanking the &quot;1&quot; demonination are two &quot;hyphens&quot; which are not pictured on the 1935 coin shown in Krause.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can anyone confirm whether this was a circulation coin, a commemorative, or perhaps special gold coins made for the princes to give as gifts?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>-A.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
