This item is very unique itself and unique for entire region I hunt in.

Dirhum Coinage Stamp:
full



This object is dated 8th-9th century and is originated from East. It came from Viking times when trade between West and East was arranged through major Russian rivers. Travelling from West to East and back was a real adventure.

Object was found on river's bank in front of large village. Bank was polluted with modern trash and considered as hunted already. I was lucky to pick it right after my buddy (he just didn't swing over it :hello2:)

That's all :)

Very cool, I would like to see an image of the coin it helped represent....that would be even cooler


PS....What's a coin stamp? Is it like a seal fob or an actual coin?
