<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TrevorE, post: 3358751, member: 101370&quot;]I bought this coin...accidentally.</p><p>At an open-air market in Tbilisi, Georgia, I picked up the coin at a stall to examine it, and then promptly dropped it on the concrete. It had survived hundreds of years, I suppose, relatively intact, then I knocked a lump off the edge, which you can clearly view.</p><p>I asked the old Georgian man how much he wanted for it, without letting him know I&#039;d already damaged it, then haggled him down to about thirty dollars. I was just glad it wasn&#039;t a few hundred or whatever.</p><p>Anyway, it&#039;s about 18mm across, maybe 2 grams, and probably silver.</p><p>More, I don&#039;t know.</p><p>I&#039;d love to know, what country? What period? And what language?</p><p>Oh, and if you&#039;ve got a link to the same coin in a better state.</p><p>Thanks in advance.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://s.yimg.com/tr/i/42266cbe2d434698aa8b31d4bbd50bf1_A.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
