Hello,
 I am a Spanish collector of coins per years. I look for exchanges with others collector, I am in the habit of using the valuation of the catalogue krawse for the changes, but I am opened for any other offer.

The three dots on the second photo indicate that this coin is an example of the famous “bull & horseman” billon jital from northern historical India (including parts of Pakistan and Afghanistan). Millions of these were made, generally between 900-1300 AD, by numerous rulers, in dozens of varieties. Sometimes it can be difficult to determine the variety, but maybe some of our members can help, and with the coin in hand you may be able to find a match in one of the references. Here are a few good sources of information.

Robert Tye’s book Jitals is also a great resource. The illustration pages are available as a free .pdf download (with registration) from https://www.academia.edu/356700/Jitals

 

With the help of Robert Tye's book I have been able to focus more, I think it belongs to the kangra rajas, thank you very much
