    Hi,

    Can anybody help me identify this coin? It is silver and about 24 mm in diameter. I'm interested in origin, date and value or rarity. Thank you.

    Silver, with no fineness or weight listed. Mintage unlisted.

    Thank you DCH. I did try to find it in my Krause catalog but gave up way before I got to Yemen. Maybe next time I'll start at the BACK of the book.

    Been there man. When you decide to start at the back, the coin you're looking for happens to be at the beginning. It's a Krause conspiracy I tell ya. =/

    When I'm looking for Arabic coins, I always forget to check the listings for Yemen too...
