Hey guys, picked up a few old coins while I was on a mission in Germany. I'm not normally a buyer, but they were inexpensive and the seller had no idea what this one was. Reminded me of a Spanish marvedelus... any idea on this one? 20180813_155208.jpg 20180813_155158.jpg

Right on Don. It definitely appears to be from ancient Armenia struck during the reign of King Levon II between 1270 and 1289 AD.
