Hello,
I have recently acquired two coins which have had me baffled. The first coin is a silver coin which is quite akin to a Sikh rupee or a Kashmir rupee (The presence of the leaf mint mark). What has got me puzzled is the double leaf mint mark as I have not seen such a variety before. Unfortunately Krause has not been of much help either. Maybe I am looking somewhere else. May not even be an Indian princely states or independent kingdom coin. Any help in identifying this coin would be great.
Thanks

The second coin looks to be a Persian coin but I am not sure. It is a silver coin weighing just 4.96 grams. Any help in identifying it would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot for the information. I was indeed looking at the wrong country! :)
