  • I think this is a coin of the state of hydrabad in India. The calligraphy is called a Toghra. It is also present in old coins of Egypt.

    Best of luck

  • @nanabhai Hi Nanabhai, thanks for confirming. Yep, you are right !! I discoverd his coin accidentally on ebay, it apparently relates to one of the Nizamas of Hyderabad.

  • Hi There, that was so kind of you to reply. I have been having this coin for sometime now and just can't seem to find its origins. Can I have your e-mail id please, i'll send some clearer pictures of this coin. Thanks

see all
