[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 26042916, member: 31533"]Here's one I never showed on here, though I mentioned in Jan 2020 that I had bought it at a coin show, along with some other coins. It is a Silver Drachm. I took it out of the holder to photo it as the mylar covering was all wrinkly and so here's my best shot with my phone camera. This was put on the holder that it is Sassanian Empire 591-628 AD; Ardahir Khurda (though maybe that should have been spelled as Ardashir Khurra, though I've no idea really, I just googled the former and it didn't give me anything but did come up with the alternate spelling) KhursoII, Defaced a bit; YR-11 (there is something else under the sticker that put on that it was 591-628 AD, and I can't read it clearly) and on the back a notation UFO717DDMD so maybe that is some sort of personal id number by someone who owned it before me. Maybe someone can tell me a bit more about this coin if one is knowledgeable on it. I did not measure it but the center portion, with the beads included is approximately the size of a U.S. Quarter (.955 inch diameter) and the whole coin is just shy of a 1960s Mexican silver Peso (1.375 inch diameter, both measurement I did not measure but just googled, so hopefully both are absolutely correct) --- based on two coins I happened to have near me to give some sort of reference to it. I really love what I am assuming is the front of this one (photo to the left) not just for the clarity but also for the 'color'. Not sure what the images are. [ATTACH=full]1656008[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
