1862 Half Anna British Rule Coin

Hello all,

I went to a Rommel on Sunday here in Belgium, after I had cleaned out all his best Banknotes(that's my main collection, I moved onto his coins as I've picked up a few good coins from him in previous years.
I tend to get coins when I cant find banknotes but I dont know much about them.

So I picked this up along with some 1820's Farthings and Half Pennies.
This coins stood out because ..... hmmm shinies... because it was shiny and British Indian. Btw I know this probably isn't the right forum but I thought as it was a British coin but from India I may get more luck finding value out in this forum.

I'll tell you what I know, it has a slanted 1 in '1862', not flat. The Half and Anna are virtually in line as I know there is another version where it is more spread out.

The back, her head is a little worn but the dress is actually very detailed. I know the camera doesn't show this but please excuse that, this Android doesn't like close ups of coins, it goes all blurry but the dress detail is there.

It looks like it measure about 30.5mm, I know there are 3 different lengths but this looks closer to 30.5. I used the line under 'ANNA' as a guide across the coin to measure.

Just wondered any sort of value? I picked it up for 5 euros so anything over that is a bonus, am not going to sell it tho. It will go into the collection.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated


All the best :)

Again, sorry about the pics, best I could do with this heap of a camera lol
