    Hi there ......

    I just got myself a Metal Detector (Another Hobby !!) to pass away the time ........ anyway I came across some French Francs dating back to 1942 and this strange looking coin was with them, I have no idea what it is? It looks like Arabic writing. It was found in the S/East of England. I'm sure it's worthless but I'm curious as to what it is ??.





    Kind Regards

    Many thanks, I hope to find many more coins and I think I'm going to find this a very interesting hobby.



    Kind Regards
