New Member - help identify coin

Hello my name is Andre. I not into collecting, but my girlfriend's grandfather left behind a coin she and I are puzzled over. I've tried researching, but came up with nothing. Hopefully someone here will be able to help.

Nice coin. I will check back to see if someone can answer. There are few members that seem to understand such coins. I hope one of them see it.

 

You should PM (private message) one of the mods to have this thread moved to the "world & ancient coins" section. You'll get a lot more responses to your question. Me? Not a clue, but welcome to the forum.......

 

Thanks for your replies. I'll try and contact a mod.

 

a complete stab in the dark but have a look at the coins of the kingdom of kandy, seriously it is an old region of sri lanka.

 

That nice coin has travelled a long ways.

India Princely State of Junagadh (located in Gujarat, western India)
Nawab (prince) Mohammad Rasul Khanji (1892-1911), AKA Rasal Mahabat Khan III
Copper 1 Dokdo Samvat Era 1966 (AD 1909)

 

Wow, very interesting. Thanks everyone for your help.
