    A friend sent me the following pic and note. Any help would be appreciated. I guessed modern fantasy Crusaders medal.

    The note with the medal:
    On a recent trip to Bangladesh, a friend of mind showed me a medal or coin he found. I am trying to identify the coin. Do you know of anyone who can help me? Here are pictures of the copper medal. thanks

    I do not recognize the medal, but it looks a bit like a Crusader token / medal. The point by the horses front feet looks like a mineret, see pic below. The building with columns behind the horse looks like the Parthenon. I can not read the letters. A better pic or a list of the legends would help. Is it one-sided? Weight, diameter and thickness? The token rider has a shield (with a crest or cross) in his right hand and a sword (or something) in his left hand (unless the pic is flipped). A left handed sword rider could help the ID.
    I guess recent production.

    What's a Crusader medal (reproduction or not) doing way over in Bangladesh?
    The images could be better.
