Digging through a few coins I've picked up which I'd like to learn a bit more about...

This coin I purchased in Nepal on my travels. I was told it was a Tibetan coin from around 1910.

I've found a few similar coins here:
http://datab.us/Search/My%2BHistory...ZTxa4sN3UGlt
so it looks likely it is probably Nepalese.

It weighs 4.88 grams and I believe it's copper.

Can anyone accurately identify it and give it a more solid date? Thanks in advance!

Rotate the second image 180 degrees and the date is roughly on the bottom. The visit http://creounity.com/apps/time_mach....htm&lang=en and find matching symbols.

Nepal matches, and the number turns our to be 1970. BE1970 is AD1913.

The coin looks like Paisa KM# 685.2.
