<p>[QUOTE="Ladybranch, post: 241059, member: 44"]Looks like Arabic writing to me also. I have no idea what it says or whether upside down or not. Then again Hebrew is a mystery to me also. One of the sides may have an ankh and possibly an animal head. Islam frowns on portraying animals and humans, but there is lots of Islamic art with both. I have tried to clear up and rotate the pics in hopes of seeing them better - not much luck. There is a sister coin forum to these forums. I'm not sure how to get to it. There may be a link to it on the home page??? Someone over there may be able to help on this coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]73706[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Possibly an ankh on the left and an animal on the right:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]73709[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]73710[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
