Silver fanam

What is a appropriate price for one of these (shipping incl please)

and when I get some money, should I get a widows mite or fanam first?

Fanham like this ?

As far as I know one like this will cost around USD 20, https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces17566.html

Hammered ones like this will cost around USD 5, https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces32543.html

@Nice fanam Mark240590!

And yes, I am looking for one (or more!) with smaller diameter and hammered, 5 dollars is pretty affordable!

Thanks Sujit_kumar and Mark240590!

go with the widows mite my friend

I don't exactly know what a widows mite is but I would say these little fanham coins can be crude.

Mine doesn't show the main part of the design !

OK, thanks everyone!

It's a Judean Lepton.  A small bronze coin mentioned in the bible where a poor widow is praised by Jesus for donating 2 leptons to charity over the rich merchants donating large amounts of gold as she gave all she had while the merchants donated a small fraction of their wealth.  The biblical story and the design on the coin that looks like a small mite leads it to be called the "widow's mite" or "biblical mite"

Here's the numista page for it
