[QUOTE="sonlarson, post: 2385146, member: 15488"]Don't know why I bought these, but I picked up several in a lot. I think the price was right and I might keep a couple and dispose of the rest. India-Princely States Bahawalpur Ruler Sir Sadiq Muhammad Khan V AH1342-1343 1924-1925 Hammered Copper 1 Paisa These are very difficult to grade because they are hammered. Even a mint state coin may appear to be a low grade. Amazing that coinage was still being made in that method in the early 1900s. Shown are a few from the lot. The actual color of the coins are closest to the first one shown. the last one I took on a black background and as usual with copper coins and black backgrounds, it came out the wrong color but does show up details well.
