<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ian, post: 202519, member: 283&quot;]Many thanks for taking the time to look at these for me. Looks like I didn&#039;t do too badly. Coin #2 was the one that really had me tearing my hair out. Strangely enough, I originally had it noted as KM133 but later changed it to 131 for some reason I can&#039;t remember. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Since my last post i&#039;ve been looking at four Junagadh coppers I have. They all seem to be the same type but all subtly different. They have me completely stumped due to the poor descriptions in KM and also the fact that I simply can&#039;t make any sense of either the scripting or the dates (at least in terms of what the dates are supposed to be).</p><p><br /></p><p>Interestingly, the die alignments are all over the place with these coins too.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the first the flan is slightly oversized and as a consequence has been cupped in the striking. Consequently, it doesn&#039;t scan all that brilliantly on a flat bed scanner, producing a fuzzy image reverse. It&#039;s probably KM45.something or another.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/921816.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The rest are all more readily scanable and probably all KM45.something....or then again, perhaps not. The last one looks to me like it could be dated VS1966. It&#039;s not like me to throw my hands in the air, but at 0:45 hrs I finally surrendered to a puzzle greater than my meagre resources were capable of resolving.&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/921817.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/921818.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://www.omnicoin.com/coins/921819.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Ian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
