While back, bought a chunk of lava from an archeoligist, said he was from california, and had just got the lava from, a location in Rome, well metal detectors showed metal content, =I gave him $15.00 for it, after many-many hours of picking, digging, scratching, i ended up with a total of 15 coin, one was a widows mite, very poor condition, a few, roman constans, some unknown, and this thin bronze hammered, with some Arabic on it, had it checked by some (coin experts?) and they informed me that it was probably from the first crusades, I don't know, but it is in good condition, and I know where I got it and how I got it, and makes a great conversation piece, as you can see i mounted it as a pendant and wear it quite a bit,  tnx for looking.

That's amazing!
One coin alone in a chunk of lava by itself is great, but 15 is crazy.
Happy New Year!
Mike

Hello Bugar,

that's a rather interesting story and quite a find! Do you also have pictures of the other coins?

Best wishes,

Christian
