Khoqand - AR tanga. Khudayar khan, 1273 AH

 

Interesting, Muzyck! Based on "The Khanate of Kokand was a Central Asian polity in Fergana Valley, Central Asia that existed from 1709–1876 within the territory of eastern Uzbekistan, modern Kyrgyzstan, eastern Tajikistan and southeastern Kazakhstan," courtesy of Wikipedia, I hope that Afghanistan is a good and valid next stop. Afghanistan, 1937 two-pul.

 

That works.

Iran Safavid - Abbasi Tiflis, AH1131 1718

 

Thanks for the confirmation, Muzyck! Let's do Qatar with this 50-dirhams dated 2016.

 

Bahrain - 500 Fils, ND (1968)

 

I really like that Bahrainian 500-fils, Muzyck. Very nice.

How about Kuwait next? 2001 - or 1422 (I think), 20-fils.

 

Iraq - 10 Fils, 1938

 

Iran SH1375/AD1996 100 rials. With this coin I learned that Iran has it's own calendar, apparently AH + 40 years. Not sure when they diverged from the regular AH calendar.

Sinkiang - Miscal

Probably a fake. The obverse should not exist for a coin dated AH1311. It could be a mule, but the weight is significantly greater than it should be for the denomination. To make matters even more interesting, I did find an exact die match for the reverse in a slabbed coin. I was aware that it was probably a fake when I purchased it, but the 1 Miscal issue is a tough coin to find and I liked the way it looked.
