Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 635 Posts	Posted 07/06/2019 10:32 am Nice coin, high grade, good photos. Appears to be from India, Mughal era (in other words could be Mughal, a princely state, or British India during the later Mughal rulers). The word Shah appears on the second photo. Hopefully someone will be able to identify it more specifically. I don't see a date on the coin. This coin also appears to have been coated with a shiny substance (glue, varnish etc.). If you wish to remove this coating you could try soaking in hot water or if that doesn't work maybe acetone or ethanol. Edited by Seeker55 07/06/2019 10:38 am Report this Post to the Staff

Aragorn78 New Member Bulgaria 27 Posts	Posted 07/07/2019 03:17 am Thanks to both of you! It seems that andyg is absolutely right: https://www.NGCcoin.com/price-guide...duid-1507459 And thank you, Seeker55, for the advices. I can buy this coin for about 10 USD, but still hesitating because of the coat and mostly because of the right shifted coinage (2nd photo - that's why the date is hardly visible, only the last 1-2 numbers, it is probably 1262) Report this Post to the Staff
