[GMan00001]

I am guessing middle east.. but I could be wrong.

 

[Immy]

This comes straight from Osama bin Laden's cave in Pakistan, 5 paisa. Cool find! Congrats on your 2nd IHC and all the other finds.

WTG on that IH GMan!! Congrats.....sounds like it is in good shape too. I know they are tough to find.

No idea on the identification of that coin. My guess would be somewhere in the Middle East as well.
