I was hunting a bull dozed house lot in middletown ohio with my whites 6000 di series two when I found this old coin.From the research I did I understand that one million of these coins were minted at the Mint of Ralph Heaton and Sons in Birmingham.The bull dozers pushed this one right to the top of the ground at the end of the lot.I love construction sites.Good luck everyone.1304 is Islamic date for 1887.They only made these for one year I think.
