Sorry, but you must either be looking in the wrong place Aidan, or be in need of a new prescription for your glasses. There is an overdate. Ian
I've been quoted two books. The first being JF Vaz's `Dinheiro Luso-Indiano' (1980) which is a massive 606 pages. The cheapest i've been able to...
It's good to see so many nice quality and scarce Baroda coins all at the same sitting. I'm used to seeing the occasional one every two or three...
Apparently so. A collector from portugal has advised me that this particular coin is the only `modern' Portuguese (India) coin to have been minted...
.....absolutely nothing, otherwise I wouldn't have to be asking. Ian
When scanning my Portuguese India coins this particular coin stood out like a sore thumb. It is the only one i've ever come across in ten years of...
Bear with me and have a look at the last numeral again Aidan. The second and the last are supposed to look the same (1-9-4-9 in sanskrit...
Hi, Thanks for your comments. I am extremely pleased that we have your knowledge and expertise available to us. I hope to make full advantage of...

Here's a one year type (1892) Sayagi Rao III silver 4 annas KM34. Nice portrait coin, but very poorly struck up on the obverse. [img] Here's an...
I've just been scanning some copper coins I have of Baroda from the milled coinage of Sayagi Rao III. I've only got six examples of these and...
:bow: I guess he didn't have time to say anything about Indian Princely States coinage then. How unthoughtful of him! Where are those darned...
Aidan, you are missing the `4' which is to the right of the `3'. The `4' is dark er toned than the rest and a bit worn, but it is very much there...
Well, as you have indicated, that kind of rules it out as being 1806 -37 KM32 then. Being able to read the language certainly helps avoid such...
Sadly, I don't have that one......bummer!! :) I'm still in a bit of a puzzle (and fascinated) over that 2 (4) cash coin. It's not that I doubt...
I think the 25 cash coin is brilliant. You'd struggle to find a more 3 dimensional coin since the ancient greek coinages. I got these coins as...
Biju, my scales are not overly reliable, so I suggest an error margin of .1 of a gram to be safe. This coin weighs in at 2.3 gms, so lets say it...
(?) I'm having some difficulty with that. Bear with me. It seems to fit in pretty well indeed with the image of KM 11 in my copy of krause (2nd...
It's 15mm at the widest point.
Heres a few travancorean coins: 1 cash (6mm x 7mm)issued under Rama Varma VI from 1885 - 1895. [img] 1 cash (11mm) issued under Bala Rama Varma...
