Spott Valued Member United States 263 Posts	Posted 06/09/2014 3:08 pm It is slightly larger than a centimeter and weighs roughly 0.67 grams, and is copper color. I suspect at least one of my images is upside down. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Spott Valued Member United States 263 Posts	Posted 06/09/2014 4:12 pm You're right, it is from one of the Princely States of India! That was enough information to lead me to a picture of this coin. I think it is: Bala Rama Varma II / Milled Coinage India, Princely States, Travancore, 1 Cash, 1828-45, 10 mm, Copper, KM# 57 Obv: Sankha (conch shell) in 8 pointed star Rev: Malayafam "ORU KASU" (one cash) This is neat! It is my first coin from a Princely State! One coin closer to one from everywhere... Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff
Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2135 Posts	Posted 06/09/2014 5:39 pm Well spotted (no pun intended). However, going by the weight, I think it's more likely to be Rama Varma VI: KM 46 (1901-1910) Report this Post to the Staff
