(mirror)/(Arabic)

16mm, WM

Del writes: This is a iranian marrage token given out by the couple. The inscription is "marubank" or "Mubarak-bad" it means "glad tidings." The image is not a cup but a mirror with two candles. Similar inscriptions are found on many largess coins (donative pieces given out for celebrations like marriage, circumcision or the birth of a boy).
I wonder if this token is related to the Islamic tradition of mahr, dowry given by the groom to the bride? Does anyone know?
I have made a special page about this and similar tokens.

Know anything about this token? Please send me a note: pineconeforge(at)gmail.com
