What is This Coin???

I got this for 25 cents. It says 1616, and 786. I assume that 1616 is not the date it was minted, I'm guessing it was minted in the past hundred years or so. When would it be from and what is it?

5000 what???

 

I don't know but I saw this coin on Ebay sell for like $7.00

 

Are you allowed to say "nice cuds" in this PC world today?

 

I'll be darn.

 

5000 Indian rupees, which is about $80.

 

If it sold on Ebay for 7$ then wonder why the seller want's so much - slightly off-center strike and die damage?

 

Maybe because he's poor and is hoping for a Sucker to pull the trigger .

 

LOL - he's poor. Coin, camera for the picture, and a computer to post!

 

In 3rd world countries most use internet cafe's as a means to communicate to family and friends. Only the elite have such items. Have you ever traveled over sea?

 

Heck no - I have a fear of hitting the ground from 30,000 feet at 300 MPH, plus the thought of getting my head cut off!!

 

Doug5353 mentioned somewhere else it could be a modern prayer coin or token, I think he may be right on that. I looked up 786 Islamic and I saw this thing on the significance of 786.

Well I'm guessing ships are also out of the question "icebergs" right? Oh right the head thing...lol BTW when you hit the ground from 30,000 feet you are going a lot faster than 300 MPH it's like 32 feet per second per second. At that speed it's not the fall it's the sudden stop!

 

Or the drowning if you land in the ocean. Wait!! What about sharks!!
