Unknown coin without any obvious lettering

3 posts • viewed 59 times

Any idea what this coin is? I found it in a box of Indian coins (including many Indian Princely State coins) but it's not necessarily Indian. It weighs 3.0 g and is 16 mm. It appears to be debased silver but I'm not sure. I don't see any obvious letters or symbols and I don't know what the correct orientation is. Thanks for your help. 

 

It looks like a “bull & horseman” jital

Thanks for your response. I had been wondering about that possibility but didn't see any images online of “bull and horseman” strikes that were similar enough to my coin for me to be confident in that. For example, none of the coins at https://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/bh.html?srsltid=AfmBOoqbqmDDz7qpoa1LSNnD_vnlcIX0ey15XKfu9X4HtSKXI13a8BDc look similar to mine on the obverse and reverse. Late Horseman Type J looks the most similar, I think. I know there' a huge amount of variation in these coins.  Do you know of any images/strikes of “bull and horseman” jitals that look similar to mine?
