ooops...i watched the video, so that is kind of cheating....so i'll keep my mouth shut.
the coin looks nice! nice thing about the vid, it really shows the effect of the countermark...didn't really get that from just a pacture.

It's not cheating if you watched the video. It's using the resource clue available to you.

I'll guess and say Rajpatana.
