In addition there are some subtle differences between these and &quot;regular&quot; Gadhaiya from middle series 1.4:</p><p><br /></p><p>- The bottom ribbon is angled too far toward the portrait, leaving too large of a gap for these coins; it should sit directly beneath the upper portion of the ribbon.</p><p>- There seems to be a diagonal line where the upper beard dots should be</p><p>- The necklace is poorly engraved or partially absent </p><p>- The moon is too lopsided; it should be more or less symmetrical</p><p><br /></p><p>I am struggling with how to categorize these, as they fit all the criteria otherwise to be categorized as part of Series 1.4, and not their own series.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
