Here are the two Nepal coins I won a few days ago :)
They are early 1700's and probably the wrong way round :)

Nice...the style somehow reminds me of the Mughal empire's art. Oh, and the 3rd photo is upside-down

Again, very interesting coins! And yes, I think only the 3rd image is flipped. In Sanskrit-based alphabets the baseline of the letters is on the top, in contrast to our Roman alphabet which is on the bottom. Anyway, there's the long-winded explanation!

And sorry--I just noticed this was the grading forum!
I wish I had a clue on these coins, but I don't suppose a guess of VF+ means much--especially since I don't know these coins!

Possibly a VG8, maybe an F12.
