Kingdom of Tarim (Yemen) 1352 (1933-34) Silver Dinar
Offered is a very unusual Dinar, struck in silver to a proof standard the name of the Kingdom of Tarim (Yemen), and dated 1352, or 1933-34 on the Gregorian calendar, KM#X1d. This ‘small silver’ (23mm) Dinar is in fact a fantasy issue, having been struck in small quantities at Vienna in 1965 at the behest of the enigmatic Bernard M O’Hea in several formats and metals. This example a most presentable silver proof with some expected minor hazing and a delicate russet tone at the perimeters. In all an exotic and interesting issue.
