    What does the Arabic script mean on the Saroyan coins?

    Hi,

    I've always wondered what the Saroyan Arabic script meant.

    I will try to find a pic, or a link.

    I always assumed it was Bismillah Calligraphy.

    It's hard to read, but it looks like Masha Allah calligraphy.

    from harry:
    Hi Zamora,

    If you are asking about the word before the Sir-name Saroyan in Arabic,
    which is stamped on some of our zills and in the middle of our scimitar
    blades, it pronounces Masnou'at Saroyan, which means Saroyan Crafts
    or Mastercrafts

    Zamora,

    I just went on Bhuz and the question people are asking is, "What does the
    Arabic script mean on the Saroyan coins?" Since I didn't quite understand
    your question in your previous email "What the Saroyan Arabic script meant?"
    I thought you were asking about the Arabic word before Saroyan.

    The stamping on the Saroyan Arabesque coin is "Masha'Allah", in Arabic
    it means "God Willing". It is also a word of admiration and is commonly
    used in the Middle East.

    Please make the necessary correction."

    and i have!
    thank you kind sir!
