These coins have whats called security edge, that means the reeding should not be like on US coins, it should have a break in the middle and a series of circles or dots in the break.

 

old krause catalogue mention two varieties. one reeded.,another with a security edge as you said.

 

Since you already have the Krause you probably know this, mine is from the 2010 issue, 37th edition

This a fake coin available for 800 INR or ~$12 USD

 

It does seem to be too underweight to be a real coin

 

weight of the coin was from a hand held jewellary balance with me.I will recheck in electronic balance and post again.
