[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2959979, member: 10461"]Does anybody know anything about these supposed fanams with elephants on them? The seller offering these gives no info, and the pictures are as tiny as the coins, but I'm intrigued by the elephants and the toning looks awesome. There's another type with an [URL='https://thumbs.worthpoint.com/zoom/images1/1/0212/02/india-gold-fanam-xix-century-elephant_1_9dc16bcb8f4128c3d26ac8a85da9a2ae.jpg']elephant facing right[/URL], but it looks less like an elephant to me. I like the design of the left-facing ones. Seller's miniscule pictures of two of the left-facing elephant coins are posted below. (Sorry, those images are all I've got to go on- and I cropped out [I]acres[/I] of empty space around the coins.) I'd like to know what state they come from, and be sure they aren't some kind of fantasy issue. Anybody know anything?
