QUARTER ANNA OF 1833 BOMBAY PRESIDENCY COPPER COIN OF EAST INDIA COMPANY INDIA. LOOK ON EBAY THERE ARE PLENTY.

 

I want to share this image with you from the Numista Website

 

Thank you very much. I looked in SC of World coins 1801-1900 and really got confused with the Indian Princely States and British India.

 

Thank you. I thought that I had rare coin.

 

I posted this coin in Exonumia a few days ago - Indian Temple token loosely based on the Half Anna of the Bombay presidency 1834. I think it is cool!

 

Is that a monkey with the scales and are the other two lions with monkey heads?

 

Yes I think they are monkeys. I think the comment is the British rule was like being ruled by monkeys. The one with the scales looks like he is having a cr*p, suggesting either that British justice was cr*p or he was dealing out the cr*p equally!

The other link is that one of the Hindu Gods takes the form of a Monkey - Hanuman I believe.

 

I don't believe those are monkey heads. I may be wrong but are they the head of William IV king of England in 1834?
