Jadey Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 12/22/2018 08:34 am I've been trying to definitively ID this coin. I have it listed as India Kaserah Haider Shah 1470-1472, but I have not found an exact match. I believe the composition is copper, 5.5 grams and roughly 19-20mm. The obverse matches the one shown here in this link, but the reverse does not. Any help would be appreciated. I'm sorry I don't know if the orientation is correct for this image.

Jadey Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 12/22/2018 12:52 pm Thanks for the link Spence. That is a very informative thread. Unfortunately the location that would clarify my coin is missing the detail. I do see the three dots to the left, but that is about it. The revere is definitely not a match.

Kushanshah Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 12/22/2018 8:53 pm The reverse is the mint and date written out in words. This type was struck for decades with all coins bearing the frozen date 874, the primary difference between issues being the names of the several successive sultans in the lower half of the obverse below the knot. The sultan's name isn't plain here but if I had to guess I'd say Hasan Shah, 1472-1484, G/G K32. The apparent difference on the reverse is likely a matter of the arrangement of the legend and the strike. Edited by Kushanshah 12/22/2018 8:58 pm Report this Post to the Staff
