january1may Pillar of the Community Russian Federation 5172 Posts	Posted 06/22/2020 05:50 am The one with the eagle doesn't look real to me, but I'm no expert. The other one is Indian, probably real, but unlikely to be very early. I think I'm reading the date 1113 at 3h on top pic, which would put it in the early 1700s (I don't recall the exact conversion offhand, and I'm not even sure if it's the actual date and not some regnal thing).

These are referred as the Shekel of Tyre Here is an image of another matching example (same dies, same flan shape, same wear pattern) from a fakes database. Report this Post to the Staff
Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 634 Posts	Posted 06/22/2020 10:11 am For the coin on the right, a Mughal Indian silver rupee, I agree with january1may and also read the date AH 1113 (ca. AD 1702), which would put it during the reign of Aurangzeb. I see no reason to question its authenticity. The top photo should be rotated about 100 degrees counterclockwise and the bottom photo should be rotated about 135 degrees clockwise. In other words, the lines across should be horizontal, rising slightly at the edges. Edited by Seeker55 06/22/2020 10:37 am Report this Post to the Staff
oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5239 Posts	Posted 06/22/2020 11:55 am I have an identical one to your left coin. it came in a folder declaring it to be an "Authentic Replica of Original Bible Coin". It is a replica of a Shekel of Tyre, supposed to be the type of silver of the "thirty pieces of silver" received by Judas to betray Jesus. Report this Post to the Staff
willieboyd2 Pillar of the Community United States 525 Posts	Posted 06/22/2020 4:58 pm The Arabic coin appear to be real. It is a Mughal India coin and appears to be Emperor Aurangzeb (AD 1659-1707) Mint Aurangabad date AH 1113 (AD 1702) The Regnal year would be around 44 and I can see a '4" on the reverse (second picture from top). I am not completely sure of the mint name either. https://www.brianrxm.com The Mysterious Egyptian Magic Coin Coins in Movies Coins on Television Edited by willieboyd2 06/22/2020 5:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff
