<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jackhd, post: 2429614, member: 73897&quot;]VK - Thanks so much for the kind reply. I&#039;m grateful for the information. I think your coin is fabulous, and at that price, exceptional. I&#039;ve already started to &quot;prowl&quot; ebay for an initial &quot;target.&quot; At first glance, there appears to be no shortage of examples from the 17th, and 18th Centuries. Unfortunately, your example has completely spoiled me, so I&#039;m holding out for something &quot;older.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>The lore attached is also commanding. I find great interest in the difference between Muslim dating (AH), compared to our standard AD. I&#039;m envious of the apparent TOTAL commitment that followers of Muhammad have made. As you point out, even the coinage is used as a statement of faith. It sort of makes &quot;In God We Trust&quot; seem somewhat anemic. From a Western perspective the blending of faith and politics seems so unlikely. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. Jack[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
