Hello all. I've looked through my Krause, and can't seem to find this coin. Can anyone tell me where it's from? Thank you. -A.
Sehkmet22,this is a 1 Rupee coin from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan,which is a member country of the British Commonwealth.The language that is inscribed is not Arabic,but Urdu,which is closely related to Hindi. The portrait on the coin's obverse is Qaid-i-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah (b.1876 - d.1948).He was the first Governor-General of the Dominion of Pakistan (1947-48). Aidan.
