Have no clue/ my guess is Travancore.

 

Wait for the ancients experts one of them will know. Good luck

 

The folks at zeno.ru can help identify such coins. I think both images need to be rotated a bit more than 90 degrees clockwise. The white background is good, as that is what zeno requires. Please see their site for their requirements. I have several hundred coins not much different from this, and nearly all of them have been identified this way.

 

Thanks coin-nut. I have had a look at the site but in order to get help I need to register, as you would expect, and the message is "New user registrations not allowed." I will keep looking.
Cheers Brian.

 

Brian, I sent you a PM, I can get it done for you. Check your inbox.

Number #56269 might be it.

 

I think you got it there. Very good comment by Jan Lingen about the massive counterfeiting operations in India. I should get a copy of that book.
