<p>[QUOTE="The Whizzle, post: 292255, member: 10846"]Hey, I have been logging my coin collection, and I came across this unusual coin that seems to be very old (maybe from late BC to around 1200 AD or something is my guess). Ive done lots of searching, but cant find anything like it. I dont have a camera, so i cant post a picture, but i made a crude drawing of it with some of the more prominent features. It is a little less than an inch across, about as thick as 2 U.S. nickels stacked on top of each other, its bronze, and it is definately not a perfect circle. One side has a persons full standing figure, head facing left, with arm out to left with hand open. The other side has a man facing left, also a full standing profile. You can still see the detail in his face, and he seems to have a big nose and a beard. There is something by his right hand that he might be holding (a bucket maybe?). Please take a look at this picture and tell me what you think it could be, or maybe even just a time period or area it might be from. Thank you in advance. </p><p> </p><p>Jon[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
