I'm sincerely sorry to bring you bad news but your jambiya is very recent.
If you are from the UK, you know that the coins look like George V Sovereign gold coins.
"Look like" because there is no way to have two gold coins on a jambiya like this.
BUT if they are, then it's jackpot for you! I wish for you they are...
The coins are more likely copper or brass copies.
I attach a photo of a jambiya with a George V Sovereign.
