Hello!
Last year I picked up this coin from one of the various Indian Princely States associated with the British Raj. However, I never really knew what it was and purchased it due to the low price and unique design. Does anyone happen to know more about this coin? The Arabic numbers I do see say 5 and 7 if I'm not mistaken. Thank you!
