Hello I have recently come across this ,its an indian coin that is strick into a hexagonal peice of metal.Could anyone help with what it could be.
It's some kind of fantasy imitation, possibly of a die. Are the design elements and lettering incuse (sunken) instead of raised? The bust is that of George V, who didn't ascend the throne until 1910, so he certainly never had any coins dated 1907, which was in the reign of Edward VII. Dies, not coins, are mirror images. The reverse legends are unmistakeably a mirror image, but I can't tell if they are incuse from those pictures. I can't be certain about the obverse from that small picture, but the legends don''t look mirror image, even though the bust is facing the wrong direction for a George V coin. Sorry, but I'm convinced that you have a curiosity, not a collectible.
The legends are mirror imaged. Iit isn't clear from the pictures but my bet is that they are incuse and it is probably a lead or white metal blank that has been sandwiched between two coins.
