Hey CCF Members, Can you please help me identify this coin? I did a lot of research, and I assume that it could be an Indian coin from the Indian Princely States Era. Although I could be completely wrong. I would like to know more details about it, like from which region, state, era, territory, kingdom, etc. It looks like it's made out of copper, again I might be wrong. And by the way, I found it 6-10 inches deep not too far away from the beach, while I was MDing. Helping me know more about this would be great. Let me know if you would like more details.    |

Because I have found zero coins from any of the princely states that are that size, and I've been on 4 sources

Okay, I'll do that. Although I just guessed that it could be from there. It could be Arabian or maybe Otomman... Anyway, I'll post the pic with a ruler in a bit. Thanks for your efforts.

Yea man I'm stumped, my best guess is a 1 paisa from the princely states, and I've been looking on Zeno.ru for it, and I can't find it so maybe get it appraised by a irl numismatist or a historian idk tho.
