Nepal Mystery Coin

Aloha!

My wife just returned from a business trip to Nepal, and knowing my love of coins she brought this one back for me. Anyone have any idea what it may be? Sorry if I photographed it upside-down! Measures around 13mm across.



Mahalo,

it looks like a temple token from the pashupatinath temple

 

Certainly a Pashupatinath Temple, Nepal Token.....Its written in Devanagari (Hindi) in the right image

 

Hmmm, my research reveals the inscription says: "The Abominable Snowman (AKA Yeti) exists and could be found lying dormant during the winter months, often buried in shallow caves with a sprig of willow in their left paw."

Just kidding, A very Nice and Mysterious Coin...

Take Care

As i said earlier you need help and pronto

 

This looks like 1 paisa KM#629 to me with date VS1968 (1911). But then the diameter should be 23 mm instead of 13 mm.

 

Mahalo folks!

You guys are the best! I had a feeling it was a temple token after seeing similar coins in this thread.

Coin talk no ka oi!
(Coin talk is the best!)

 

remember to give me a good tour of the island when i get there next month
