Very nice coins, and an important part of early Imperial history, although my understanding is that these are very regional issues. A metal...
I love the decidedly Eastern style of the bust on this coin. Nice find!
That is a totally new one on me. Great discovery!
Nice! The pics look super!
Actually, I have no doubt that the OP coin is a 100% authentic Indian token.
It imitates a denarius of Septimius Severus. Perhaps the seller calling it a token of India is his way of calling it a fake. I had a very nice,...

Post away my friend! This is a coin forum, we post coins! We have this conversation about kids and numismatics sometimes, and it never bothers me...
I came across this unusually strong Widow's Mite, lepton of Alexander Jannaeus. The centering and detail are off the charts, and it's not doctored...
