ID of this fels? from Morocco? [решено]

7 сообщений • просмотрено 124 раз
I bough this copper coin last week:

Size is 18-19 mm
Weight is 1.92 g

On the left photo, the seller reads 1159, but I think it could be also (1)150 or arabic letters.
On the right, we can see the real "seal of Solomon" with a sort of flower in the middle; the first fels of Morocco with this seal begin with Sulayman around 1210, but I cannot find this coin in the Eustache "Corpus des Monnaies Alawites".

Any idea?
It doesn't look Morocco, it might not be a "Seal of Solomon" on reverse.
It might be a Manghir from the Ottoman empire ? a bit like this one

I think you are right...my coin is very similar to the Manghir Mehmed II.
Thanks for your quick and useful information.

Looks like there is inconsistency in the recommendation. The recommended coin does not have star (just three arcs), the recommended coin starts on reverse with خلد ملكه which is far from the the image on the coin in question.

You're right but the design of his coin seems far from a Morocco coin that's why I think it's rather an Ottoman empire coin.

Mamluk sultanate of Egypt.
We can read "Al-Malik Al-Na[sir] / Duriba [Trablus]"

The laqab "Al-Nasir" has been used by different ruler, some assumed only Muhammad I could have been used it alone (whitout ruler name), however I still have some doubts about some of those attributions.

Anyway, your coin is here on numista : https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces142384.html
Thank you Cycnos to identify it.
This confirm that it was not a date but "duriba"....
We can also suppose that the mint is the same as your coin (Tripoli).
So, I mention "solved".
Thanks again
