WalterS New Member Poland 46 Posts	Posted 11/29/2018 4:42 pm Thanks for your grade @IndianGoldEagle! , I really wonder if anyone could tell me a little more about the coin, there is not much info about this coin with big letters. Edited by WalterS 11/29/2018 4:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2135 Posts	Posted 11/29/2018 8:40 pm I grade this VG10 and identify it as British East India Company half anna dated 1834 and in the Persian script, 1249. I think it is KM252. Krause's pricing structure - see https://www.NGCcoin.com/price-guide...duid-1579756 doesn't make any sense - I sometimes wonder whether they make them up. I think your coin should be valued around $10. Report this Post to the Staff
Kushanshah Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 11/29/2018 9:40 pm The fulcrum of the balance scale on the reverse is resting on the letter "l" of the Arabic/ Persian word 'adl meaning "just". A nice bit of coin design. Report this Post to the Staff
WalterS New Member Poland 46 Posts	Posted 11/30/2018 06:39 am @Pertinax, thanks for the link! I really couldn't find info about "bigger letters" type, I was searching on ebay, but all of the coins where"small letters" type. @Kushanshah, thanks for that info, it's always good to know new things about the coins we own!
