This rupee was found in a lot I bought for spot. What do you guys think? Weight is 11.5g. I have reason to be skeptical about it because it "just looks off"

1906 Rupees are reasonably common, especially in this condition, so much less temptation to counterfeit or fake them.
The weight is good at 11.5 grams in this grade.

Comparative ring tone check against a known genuine '22carat' 22/24 fine silver rupee, - different silver alloys of the same diameter and thickness would ring differently - in this case I would expect the same sound.
