<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1463901, member: 26302&quot;]That is what we are doing. I have went through thousands of auction listings, own many books on medieval coins, (more on ancients), and the top picture I have neve seen on a coin, but have seen on decorative imitations of coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you prefer, and by all means, take it to a dealer who specializes in medieval coins. A regular US dealer really won&#039;t be able to help usually. Find a larger coin show and take it in person to someone. </p><p><br /></p><p>Btw the orientation of the two holes are also telling as to its use. While two holes were put into coins to wear as jewelry in antiquity in the east, (one hole in the west), it was never like this. A hole on top and at the bottom of a coin is only made to facilitate the coin being sewn into clothing. If it were done for a jewlery piece, they would be side by side at the top.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
