<p>[QUOTE=&quot;acanthite, post: 174699, member: 6647&quot;]I don&#039;t know either, safer to say it was minted between 26-36AD.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Another ID: The one islamic coin of the first group is a fals (falus) from the Umayyad dynasty, fits closely with coins minted in about 80AH at the Tabariya mint (near sea of Galilee). Attached example and web page with varieties of this coin. The writing in the central parts of the obverse and reverse of this coin is the kalima. The name of the mint should appear at about 7 o&#039;clock in the reverse writing that circles around the kalima, the date appears at about 2-3 o&#039;clock. A native arabic speaker should be able to make out the characters better than I can.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://medievalcoins.ancients.info/cgi-bin/webdata_coinbase.pl?Dynasty=Umayyad&amp;Realm=Urdunn&amp;cgifunction=Search" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://medievalcoins.ancients.info/cgi-bin/webdata_coinbase.pl?Dynasty=Umayyad&amp;Realm=Urdunn&amp;cgifunction=Search" rel="nofollow">http://medievalcoins.ancients.info/cgi-bin/webdata_coinbase.pl?Dynasty=Umayyad&amp;Realm=Urdunn&amp;cgifunction=Search</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
