Newember 2017 Valued Member Ukraine 53 Posts	Posted 07/24/2018 06:12 am Hello! Recently my collection was replenished with a nice coin of Jaipur paisa. The attempt to find out the year proved to be difficult: regnal year 37 has two rulers, and these types-KM-105 and KM-130 are quite similar. It can be both 1872 and 1916. How to know exactly and how to distinguish these two types? Also, the weight of the coin is 5.80 grams, while everywhere they write it should be within 6.00-6.30. This is normal? Forgery doesn't seem to be, and there's no sense in forging them, these coins, although rare, are inexpensive. Report this Post to the Staff

Newember 2017 Valued Member Ukraine 53 Posts	Posted 07/26/2018 02:22 am Is it really such a difficult question, huh?... And meanwhile I seem to have found a partial answer. Full inscription on obverse: "Zarb Sawai Jaipur sanah (year) ba-adhi malikah mu'azzamah Sultanat Iglistan Victoria". Translation: Struck at Sawai Jaipur in the year (for example,1872) by permission of Her Majesty Victoria, Queen of England. Hence, the year of the Christian era is written on the coin! (if only not out of flan). For example, on another coin we can see 190, last cipher out of flan. Report this Post to the Staff
