    Sorry my friend - just too dark to read legends, see design elements, or compare with catalog photos. :(

    This coin is SYRIAN from the AYYUBIC kingdom. I have such coin of Yusuf Nasir Salaah AlDin AlAyyubi which called in the west "SALADIN" , reigned 1164 - 1193. The value of the coin is 1 FALS. "Salaah" is readable. I have a coin that was minted in Damascus in 585 AH equal to 1189 AD.
