I'm away from my books, and found a few really great deals... more on that later. But does anyone know what this is? And the all-important question... is it silver? I can read that the year is 1354 (assumed to be AH), which is roughly equivalent to our AD1935... and that it's a 1/4 something...

Hey Aaron
If your date is correct than it's a 1/4 riyal Saudi Arabia
3.1g X.9170 Silver .0914 ASW, mintage 900,000 Km #16
The picture in the Krause book is hard to compare so I'm relying on the info you give.

Hey, that's it! Over two and a half dollars worth of silver... for two bucks. Not a bad deal. Thanks for the quick help, Thogey.
I got 11 coins today for their silver content, and it turns out every one was bought for under melt. WIN.
