    Would like a bit of assistance in identifying this coin.

    Copper, about the size of a US Half Dollar, smooth edge.

    I can attempt better pictures if necessary, and I have the Krause books, just need to be pointed in the right direction (or help with dates, as well...)

    Thanks everyone!

    Well it's from Indore, Indian State. Appears to be a 1/2 anna and dated VS1945, or 1888.
