Sap Moderator Australia 16837 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 8:46 pm "Indian" it certainly is, of the "Islamic" type with Arabic/Persian script, but there's nowhere near enough detail visible for me to ID it narrower than that. In lieu of providing much helpful information, I'll ask questions instead. Can we have the size and weight? Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Ancientnoob Pillar of the Community United States 5155 Posts	Posted 05/05/2015 08:32 am This coin is most certainly Indian. It is a fairly modern coin probably the early 19th century. The denomination is based on weight. My guess based on diameter and relative thickness I am guessing around 16 grams, or a Paisa. You might be able to find this in a Krause catalog.
