monnaiesinconnues New Member Belgium 3 Posts	Posted 01/03/2017 09:46 am Hi there ! I am a new member looking for help to identify these two coins. I haven't got a clue where they originate from. All I can see on them is the date (1821 and 1827). Thanks in advance ! * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by monnaiesinconnues 01/03/2017 10:55 am Report this Post to the Staff

Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 01/03/2017 12:47 pm Portuguese India? https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces49009.html I would be wary of counterfeits; genuine pieces are pricy and of crude manufacture, thus very easy and worthwhile to fake.

Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 01/03/2017 1:24 pm I was also thinking Portuguese India. I could not find any similar coins dated 1821, so is it possible the first one is also dated 1827? The second one is most likely 5 bazarucos (here and here), while the first would either be 10 (link above) or 20 bazarucos (here). Report this Post to the Staff

monnaiesinconnues New Member Belgium 3 Posts	Posted 01/04/2017 05:21 am Hello everyone! First let me thank all of you for your kind and swift reply to my query! In order to make a step further here are other pictures of my two coins. The first one is the bigger one with a diameter of approx. 36mm and a weight of 15.9 grammes. The smaller one has a diameter of 20mm and weighs 4.4 grammes and you were right suggested they both date from 1827! Edited by monnaiesinconnues 01/04/2017 05:29 am Report this Post to the Staff
