This just arrived in a little envelope from Bhutan. I'm pretty fascinated by this coin because it's just so different from our Western money, which is ultimately based on Roman/Byzantine/Greek conventions. There's also a nice die crack at 4:00.

Nice coin. It's a 1951 Pice right? Did you really buy it from somebody in Bhutan?

Thanks! Yes, this type is either 1951 or '55 1 Pice.
I really did get it from Bhutan! Here's the "stamp"--modern metered postage:
