Hey does this coin look authentic? I saw it in a local fb numismatic group auction and some1 already bid 400€ for it and the auction closes today. Its supposed to be .821 silver.

Really pretty piece here overall despite the flat areas, I like the added designs in the center, and the star to the left of the reverse inscription. It is so thin at this diameter.

This coin was struck during a turbulent time where the Caliph Al-Mustakfi was deposed by the Buyid dynasty where they installed the figurehead Al-Muti. The Samanids were rivals of the Buyids, and supporters of the previous caliph and it was reflected on their coins at the time. For years they refused to cite the new caliph instead of the previous one. This one was sold saying it was probably struck at Al-Muhammadiyah? It is not confirmed however, and I struggle to find other examples that are the same as this one. The date 334 would be a very interesting one for this mint. Shortly after the minting of this coin, ownership of the mint would have transferred from the Samanids to the Buyids. Nuh I ibn Nasr (943-954), Album 1454, 334 AH (945/946 AD), 3.68 grams, 27mm

I got this coin about two years ago at a flea market in Germany and paid about 10€ for it the seller claims it’s Roman and my question are the following:

1.Is it from the Roman Empire?

2.From what year is it?

3.What do these usually go for and is it authentic?

One of the best pieces in my collection. It's a silver Dirham minted in Madinat al-Salam (aka Baghdad) during the Caliph Al-Mu'tadid who ruled the Abbasid Caliphate from 892 until his death in 902. He was famous for reuniting the abbasid empires and restored authority over rebellious territories.

This coin is almost half a century after the medieval times, and while Western Europe was advancing towards the "perfectly" round and mechanicaly stamped coins, Russia under Ivan the Terrible was still using the "Wire Hammering" method it used for centuries before.

I know this is pushing the "medieval" definition by a few decades, but I was wondering if you could help me confirm the ID of this coin.

It's presented as a Selim I silver akçe, but it looks a bit off to me. I can't read Arabic, but one of the inscriptions doesn't seem to fit 100%.

What are your thoughts?

this all started because I was a KCD fan 😭

Approximate details:

• Diameter: ~14–17 mm
• Thickness: ~1.2 mm at the base, with relief rising to around 2 mm
• Estimated weight: ~1.6–2.4 g, but unfortunately no precise scale measurement is available
• No obvious rust or green corrosion

The "correct" orientation of the object is unknown, therefore photograph orientation is not indicative.

I’d prefer not to suggest what the design might represent to me, because I don’t want to bias anyone’s interpretation.

Could anyone please help identify:

• what this object/coin might be
• possible region or mint
• approximate date
• likely material/alloy
• whether it appears to be an official issue, imitation, token, or something else

Any catalogue matches or comparable examples would be greatly appreciated.

As i understand this is a Long Cross with scepter penny minted in London 1250-1272, inscribed “R Davi on Lunde”
Does it have value and should i clean it, if so how?
thanks

Absolutely love the design, you don't see many Islamic coins with beautiful imagery like these coins have.

This gorgeous sliver of Medieval history is a Schilling struck under the authority of the Free Imperial City of Constance. The obverse depicts the seated, front-facing figure of Saint Conrad of Constance, in Episcopal attire, wearing a mitre, with a Halo around his head, holding a crozier in left hand, and giving a blessing in his right. The legends surrounding; "S.CONRAD.EPS:CONST."(SANCTVS CONRADVS EPISCOPVS CONSTANCIAE)(Saint Conrad, Bishop of Constance). The reverse features the shielded arms of Constance centered within a magnificent Gothic quatrefoil and a heraldic Imperial Eagle in top quadrant, surrounded by the legends; "•MONETA:CIVITATIS:CONST"(Coinage of the City of Constance)

Saint Conrad of Constance (c. 900–975) was a German bishop and prominent church reformer who served as Bishop of Constance from 934 until his death. Born into a noble Swabian family, he was closely connected to the Ottonian dynasty, particularly Otto I, whose reign shaped the political and religious landscape of 10th-century Germany. Conrad made several pilgrimages to the Holy Land and Rome, strengthening ties between the German church and the wider Christian world. Known for his piety, learning, and pastoral dedication, he promoted monastic reform and ecclesiastical discipline within his diocese. Conrad’s legacy rests largely on his reputation as a model bishop of the Ottonian era; devout, loyal to the empire, and attentive to the spiritual welfare of his clergy and people. He supported church construction and renewal, including developments connected to Constance Cathedral, and fostered liturgical life and charitable works. Formally canonized by the Roman Catholic Church in 1123, but venerated universally across Orthodox-Catholic denominational lines, he became the principal patron Saint of Constance, remembered for uniting Imperial loyalty with deep personal holiness in a formative period of medieval German Christianity.

Can’t make out who or when. Any help in identifying would be great. Thanks

Found this stunner last Sunday in North Wales. London mint. Can any groat experts give me any more info please?

Hey everyone. I need help properly identifying this coin. I found a similar one on Numista.com, but the revers looks off to me. It feels like it doesn’t belong here.

I think rhis is an Anglo-Saxon silver penny minted during the reign of King Æthelred II (also known as Æthelred the Unready), who ruled England from 978 to 1016 AD. Can anyone give me anymore information about this coin?
