Silver Arabic Coin Amulet/Pendant with Calligraphy

This item is a circular, silvery metallic object, appearing to be a coin that has been modified into a pendant or amulet. The material is silver, as indicated by the context, and it exhibits a dull, somewhat tarnished finish characteristic of aged silver. The overall surface shows significant wear and patination, suggesting considerable age and handling. At the top, a small circular hole has been drilled or punched through the rim, indicating its conversion for suspension as a piece of jewelry or a charm. The coin's obverse or reverse (only one side is clearly visible) features intricate Arabic calligraphy, which is the primary design element. The central script appears to be a stylized form of Arabic text, possibly a religious invocation or an important phrase, flanked by additional script around its perimeter that forms a circular border. The details of the calligraphy are somewhat softened by wear but are still discernible. There are no clear indications of a specific mint mark, date, or denomination typical of standard currency, which, combined with the presence of the suspension hole, suggests it may have been primarily intended as a commemorative piece, a talisman, or repurposed from a coin for such use. The craftsmanship, particularly the calligraphy, appears to be of good quality despite the wear, showcasing skill in engraving or striking. The edges are mildly irregular, likely due to standard minting processes for older coins or subsequent wear. The item does not show signs of significant repairs, but the wear is consistent across the visible surface.
