    How do you know it is from East India company? I assume this is the same as the East indies trading company? If it is, the coin i have from them, states such on the coin. If it is not, then i just dont know :D

    Welcome to the forum! I'm no expert or anything really when it comes to World coins, but some of the experts should be along shortly. That's a neat coin though. :thumb: Welcome, and hope you are enjoying yourself!

    It is one of a large variety of fantasy coins like this...the reason the guy thinks it East India Company is because of the EIC on the coin.
