Saladin Coins – Metal Replica for Games

Saladin coins for games, available in gold and patinated silver. Other finishes (bright silver, copper, patinated copper) are possible for larger orders.

Diameter: 26 mm
Material: zinc alloy

This piece is a historical replica, combining the obverse of one coin and the reverse of another from the reign of Saladin. These coins were struck in his sultanate at the end of the 12th century, most likely in Cairo.

The reverse side carries a praise of God, while the obverse is unusual – and even controversial in the Islamic world – as it shows a portrait of Saladin himself. Only a ruler of his stature could afford such a bold departure from tradition.

We use these coins in our own LARP games (http://akkon1291.com). With use they naturally darken and age, which makes them look even more authentic and convincing.
