@deuterium_1, yes I think that you are not able to contact folks directly until you have more posts under your belt. It looks to me like you have several dozen Indian coins, which is really great. Perhaps you could look through some of dnrsreedhar's posts to see if you can find a match between his posts and your coins. I think you may find attributing coins in this way to be more productive and satisfying than just posting a gimungous list here and waiting for folks to do that work for you. Just my Two Cents.

Coin three may be this one, but I am not positive. If it is, it would be dated either 1748 or 1749, since it has a regnal year of 1. The twelfth coin has the same side posted twice, but looks the same as coin fourteen (same year as well). It may have a different regnal year though. Coin thirteen looks like this one. The third digit in the date looks more like a three than a four, so it would be dated 1818. The fourteenth coin can be found here. Its date is cut off, but is 1076/23, which would be 1666. Coin nineteen would be this one, dated 1867. |

The first coin might be this one, although it is hard to tell for sure. Coin fifteen is dated 1103 (or possibly 1102, but I am leaning towards a three on the last digit), meaning the coin is from the reign of Aurangzeb. It looks to be the fifth coin on this site. The year 1103 would be 1692. The sixteenth coin looks like it is from the reign of Sher Shah Suri. Probably this coin. The eighteenth coin also looks like it from Sher Shah Suri's reign. It looks like the one here. Also, the date of the second coin can be narrowed down from 1713-1719. I can read 112X/5, and with the regnal year being five, the last digit of the date would have to be either an eight or a nine. It would be from either 1716 or 1717. |

That leaves coin five, seven, eight, ten, seventeen, and twenty. Could you provide the diameters of those coins? That could make identifying them easier.

Does anyone know what Indian state all of these coins are from? That would be my first question.
Nice batch, BTW. Some very crisp ones here.

Yes, please do. Providing the diameters could help with identifying the remaining coins.

Well, I have tried looking for the remaining coins, but I could not find them. Hopefully someone else will be able to identify them.

Perhaps if dnrsreedhar sees this thread then he can help resolve the identity of the coins.

After last post I noticed that the last coin on the first page is that of Mahmud bin Muhammad shah of Bahmani sultanate. I am posting that link also. http://goccf.com/t/100894 |
