Joseph7420 Bedrock of the Community Canada 11922 Posts	Posted 09/12/2017 11:11 pm Coming from someone who knows practically nothing about temple tokens, I would think it is a genuine Mughal coin—either a 1 or 1/2 rupee piece from year AH Alif, to be more exact. And Alif means years 1000, which would be around 1592 in the Gregorian calendar. The closest match for a mint I could find was from the Urdu Zafar Qarin mint.

aiglet7 Pillar of the Community Canada 695 Posts	Posted 09/13/2017 12:03 am It appears to be a genuine Mughal rupee coin of Akbar the Great. It should be silver and 11.41 gm in weight. Dimensions should be 21 x 20 mm. Akbar struck these square rupees, which were called jalalah. Report this Post to the Staff
