The information that I have is that it is an Indian Silver Rupee from 1901, Dulip Singh / Shaikh Gholum. That info was given to me on a site on The book of face, but that's all I have. I have been through my book on World coinage in the appropriate section but can't seem to find it in there. Also had a bit of a peruse through several online sites, but again can't seem to find a match. Any extra information would be great, thank you. Met. 19mm & 10.85g. Report this Post to the Staff

Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 640 Posts	Posted Yesterday 8:05 pm Excellent ID, @jdsstrat! I read the date on the coin in question as VS 1902, which is about AD 1845. Just for the record, the ID is a silver rupee of the Sikh Empire, Kashmir mint struck at Srinagar, Gobind Shahi couplet, VS 1902 = AD 1845 Edited by Seeker55 Yesterday 8:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
