wwhitman Pillar of the Community United States 1415 Posts	Posted 06/27/2009 08:16 am I picked this coin up the other day at an antique center. I have tentatively id'ed a KM#557.2. I think I got a deal, but not sure. If you please, is the id okay, and how would you grade (that nasty black fungus?) Finally ya think it is worth slabbing? THANX in advance Report this Post to the Staff

Arjmuat New Member United States 17 Posts	Posted 06/27/2009 12:26 pm Nice coin! The oldest indian coins I have are a 1957 1 paise and a 1967 1 paise. Considering I am first generation indian, that isn't that great. BTW, nice buy! Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 06/27/2009 1:08 pm Nice detail this is KM#557.1 (Bombay mint)with the security edge. I'd grade it as AU-55, but the black gunk and dings on the upper lip will drop the value a bit. Value wise I'd say @$15. Report this Post to the Staff

thai-vic Pillar of the Community Thailand 1509 Posts	Posted 06/28/2009 01:56 am Definitely #557.1 To me the rim seems OK. The illustration in Krause for this type may have been overcropped. If you look at #557a I tnink you'll see the correct rim. Edited by thai-vic 06/28/2009 01:59 am Report this Post to the Staff
