Don't know if 1321 is really the date... Cause some coins of a certain country just say that bur really theyre from the 50s.

i dont believe the technology was available in 1321 to make a coin of that quality,

the arab world goes by a different calender starting from the date of ala or whatever...
thats where that date comes from, not old I don't think

Someone please correct me if i am wrong,
from what i understand, in the Muslim World( please forgive me if that is the wrong saying)
their calender started the year 1 when Mohammed took his pilgrimage to Mecca
in about 622 A.D. by the Western calender.
I came up with a date of 1943 A.D.(I added 1321 +622=1943)

I learned this some years ago because my grandmother had a sister who married "into money"
and granny's sister took trips into Egypt, Morocco, and the Middle East back in the 1940's and 1950's.Grandma gave me a coin that was dated 1320 and i thought i really had something !!!!

I lost that coin some years ago in a housefire, and when i saw this thread i thought i would chime in.


Just my 2 centavos........
