<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 173812, member: 112&quot;]I haven&#039;t managed to identify the coin yet, but I don&#039;t think it&#039;s from Cyprus. Here&#039;s a pic of a coin with the Lion of Cyprus - <a href="http://www.cyprusculture.com/default.aspx?ct=prod&amp;pId=391" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cyprusculture.com/default.aspx?ct=prod&amp;pId=391" rel="nofollow">Click Here</a></p><p><br /></p><p>While most of the lion designs from this time are similar, they do have differences. Notice on the one the OP posted that there are crosses being held by the lion. That is unusal and not a design I have seen before that I can recall.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have looked thru most of the coinage issued by Spain from the 1100&#039;s on and I can find nothing similar either. So at this point I&#039;m not sure where the coin is from, but I&#039;m still lookin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Where&#039;s that crazy Scotsman ?? He&#039;ll probably recognize it right off :whistle:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>By the way nyhariel - Welcome to the Forum !![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
