Hello: I got this coin in a street market. The only indication was "india" without date and another specification. I was looking for in the krause catalogs time and time again without success.
Can you help me telling me data and issuing country of this coin?

Hi,

This coin won't be in the Krause as it's older the Krause publications cover. It's likely to be one of the Pre Mughal Islamic dynasties

I thank it could be pre-Mughal, but, so old? I paid only 1 euro for that coin (I hope it isn't a fake). I'm not sure, but certainly, the inscriptions seems a kind of arabic writing.

It might be a Jital of "MUHAMMAD BIN SAM" AH 589-602 / AD 1193-1206

Bufff, really it might be, but all the designs I meet from that time seems more... involved, with a lot of arabesques. This coin seems more simple and rustic. But it's possible, it's possible.
