[QUOTE="TIF, post: 3256676, member: 56859"]A quick Google search shows many which look like this coin and the general style seems okay. It's hard to say much else though due to the poor images (which I've saved, cropped, joined, and uploaded here since eBay image links will eventually die). I don't know anything about this other than the fact that these tiny gold coins of India exist. Several people on this ancients board have bought them and there are probably some ancient-side members who are well versed in this more modern coin, but you might also want to post it to the World coin board if you don't get answers here. As Panzerman indicated, is an anonymous fanam from Tanjore, "dagger" type. I don't have any references for these. A quick search turned up anecdotal reports of the gold purity for these (or the lack of gold purity), although I don't know if 10K is lower than normal or if it raises a red flag.
