Saudi Arabian 25 Halala Coin

This item is a circular, metallic coin, likely made of a base metal alloy given its silvery-gray color and lack of obvious precious metal luster. The coin exhibits a somewhat worn, dark patina, suggesting age and handling. Its dimensions appear to be small, consistent with typical coinage, likely under an inch in diameter. The obverse side, visible in the image, features an intricate architectural design, which upon closer inspection, depicts the facade of a building, possibly a mosque or a significant historical structure. Below this architectural element, Arabic script is discernible, along with what appears to be the Gregorian date '1980' and possibly the Hijri date '1400'. The overall condition shows signs of significant circulation, with some loss of fine detail in the raised areas, and possible minor edge nicks although the edge itself is not clearly visible. There are no obvious signs of recent damage, repairs, or re-patination; the wear seems consistent with natural aging and use. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for mass-produced coinage of its era, with a clear, albeit worn, strike. The absence of a visible mint mark or specific engraver's signature is typical for such items. This coin represents a functional piece of currency from Saudi Arabia.
