I am afraid in this condition it isn't worth much. Krause gives a catalog value of 0.25$ in fine.

It is kind of coin you can find in dealer's junk boxes.

I think I may have another one. Well, it says "India" on it.

This coin comes from the Straits Settlements, which were British possesions in Malaysia. The name Straits Settlements was changed into Malaya in 1939.

"India" comes only in the titles of king George V as emperor of India. This title stands also on the British homeland coins, as IND. IMP. (Indium Imperatorem = emperor of India).
