Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 10/03/2018 04:01 am https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces3719.html I too question whether authentic. Compare your coin to this example. Notice how the letters of ONE RUPEE are, yours are thin and misshapen. Toning is just one slight area the are faked. To8ning covers up boo-boos. Notice also the denticles and surface of coin obverse, appears as a cast look, grainy. Edited by Crazyb0 10/03/2018 04:09 am Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21588 Posts	Posted 10/03/2018 09:25 am I agree with spruett001 & Crazyb0. Coin is counterfeit. Lack of detail and grainy field lean towards it being cast. Something I once read: Casting can never produce a perfect coin Edited by JimmyD 10/03/2018 11:20 am Report this Post to the Staff
