Sap Moderator Australia 16808 Posts	Posted 04/19/2010 08:31 am It's very hard to judge authenticity from a photo or scan, unless the counterfeiter has done a very sloppy job. I don't see anything in this pic that indicates it's a fake, and it's not a particularly rare coin. What makes you think it might be? Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

That one was Bombay mint, as indicated by the dot at the bottom of the reverse.
