A picture of the other side could be very informative.

It has Islamic text and an image of a mosque on the 'tails' side.

Just guessing, but he looks like Abdullah II, King of Jordan, so that's where it could be from, sandy.

I'd thought I'd found a pound.
It won't go to waste. I'll put it on the collection plate the next time I'm at Mass.

Ta for BA.

worth all of 40p......you are now a rich man!

[sandyRoe]

Made with two metals to make it harder to counterfeit.
Though you'd wonder who'd want to copy a coin worth 40p?

[Togo]

You can buy a Donkey for 40p in Morocco. (*_^)

It's probably in the eye of the beholder, sandy. In this case, it's Mohammed VI who probably has an inflated opinion of what he is worth - certainly on a coin.....

Didn't know that you had a donkey farm, Togo - this one perhaps? https://www.snowdoniadonkeys.com/

And that the stock had come from Morocco - the shipment costs must have been way more than 40p anass I guess. I can hear you saying 'No Bray.'
