Work on your photos. DON'T cut off the edges. You should be able to get sharper photos and edit them. Once you do, it should be a lot easier for us to help.

This coin is a keeper because of the age. Even with the pictures you took edited, it's just about impossible to see any details.

It's 132 year's old, why wouldn't you keep it?

Nice Indian, certainly worth keeping.

Yokozuna - Nice job re-orienting and enlarging those photos.

Greasy, buddy, I'm getting a sympathetic headache!

The best coin you've shown. Appears to be in decent condition.

Axjerk, you will get a lot more positive feedback if you can explain why you are asking if it is worth keeping. Are you seeing something special or unusual? Doi you have a SPECIFIC question? Because the short answer to the question "Is it worth keeping" is YES. Because even if it has no numismatic premium every coin you keep increases your personal monetary wealth.

Not knowing that, I would say yes, worth keeping because as said above it is a 132 year old coin.

From what I can see I call it a "space filler".
Keep it until you get a better one.

I'd keep it or give it to an interested person.
