Islamic states? Arabic. [solved]

Depending  on my limited knowledge of the Arabic alphabet, i believe this to be the correct orientation. Diameter depending on side 18-22 mm. Very thin, weight i would guesstimate to be 1-2 grams. Sorry, dont have my scale with me. If anyone could read (part of) the lettering i'd gladly do the rest of the detective work.

Khwezarim, mamluk, ayyubid possibly

Thank you! Ill have a search.

Not an error - dated 1998 & A.H. 1419.

A.H. years are slightly shorter than the normal A.D. year.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijri_era provides your answer.

Why are you attaching pictures of your coins randomly to other people's posts? Start you own if you want to post something.

Sorry log

I'm having a hard time with identifying, espescially because the script is so stylized. Could anyone help me further? Thanks!!

you don’t need to post your questions in someone else’s topic. Just create your own one or bump up the topic you created if it doesn’t have answers.

Not sure, looks like Mamluk, might have a lion in the bottom of the second image

there are many types

Thanks! It's tricky for sure.

On the second photo, the first line reads:

السلطان الملك

= the sultan king ("as-sultan al-malik). I tried to search this in the numista catalogue and got 48 results.

It's true that it's not easy to read. Many of the diacritics (dots above and below the line) are either misplaced (for space) or missing.

On the first photo in the middle there's the usual formula:

محمد رسول الله

i.e. Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. I suspect at the top there is the formula “there is no god but Allah”, but I guess most of it than I actually read it, and there seems to be something else written along with it. At any rate, this is so common it's not going to help in the identification.

EDIT — I see there were two replies in the meantime…

Thanks so much, filtering by the material copper there are 32 results left! https://en.numista.com/catalogue/index.php?r=&st=1-2-154&cat=y&im1=&im2=&ru=&ie=&ca=3&no=&v=&cu=&a=&dg=&i=%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B3%D9%84%D8%B7%D8%A7%D9%86+%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D9%84%D9%83&b=&m=3&f=&t=&t2=&w=&mt=&u=&g=&c=&wi=&sw=

It is none of that

You will get better results searching just for Mamluk dirham

Also you might think is copper but might be billon with low percentage of silver 

I'm leaning towards Baybars I, seems similar, espescially considering the repeating pattern on the thord line of the second image. But rhat could be jist totally wrong. Hard…

It's a likely candidate. The problem is that his name (if it's him) is totally missing:

It's the red oval followed by the word “qasim”. Now, if the attributes before and after his name are his and no other “sultan prince”, then it's him. If they all have the same attributes, then it could be another ruler of this dynasty.

Very similar, but without the cross: https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=315806

Edit: This one is even more similar: https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=365010

I think i can read ‘rukn’ (رُكْن) in the second photo.

Edit: It has the same script as number 2 in my previous post, https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=365010, @Geison , @Camerinvs , could my coin be this? The style of the inscription is a bit different though.

First picture:

lā ilāha illā Allāh / Muḥammad rasūl Allāh / arsalahū bi al-hudā

Second picture

al-sulṭān al-malik / al-Ẓāhir Rukn al-Dunyā wa al-Dīn / [Bibars] qasīm amīr [al-muʾminīn]

You know when you start something and it takes more time than you expected…

Here is the important side, whether we call it obverse or reverse:

It always looks like a letter is missing to the name Baybars. I took it from this page. The two dots above the sin (س) are the same as the two dots above the qaf (ق) of qasim on yours, just moved to the right for lack of space on that other coin.

When I was unsure of which diacritics (i.e. dots above or below the line) to use, I outlined them in white…

I know that feeling. What a beautiful ‘infographic’ though! I think the title is only for Baybars I and we have thus found the one!

Let me know if you add it to the catalogue; I would then add my “infographic” in the comments section.

Ill do it today!
