Date Of This Indian Temple Token

These Indian temple tokens often have "dates" on them, in terms of date-like strings of numerals in a place where a date might be expected to appear on a coin, but these numbers bear no correlation to the actual date of production. In the case of your coin, the numerals are "55740" - which isn't a sensible date in any Indian calendar-system. The numbers may be random, or they may be some kind of code as to origin of manufacturer, but I've never heard of anyone cracking any such code, so the numbers are effectively meaningless.

These tokens have been produced more or less continuously for over a hundred years. Earlier pieces were often made of silver, later ones of base metal. And as a general trend, the tokens with large ear-lobes on the humanoid figures are later in manufacture. All of which points to yours being a later piece - by which I would mean "probably some time after 1950".
