Eastern India - Cooch-Behar (1600)?

8 berichten • 195 keer bekeken
Hi Friends,

I was out metal detecting today looking for relics when this coin came out from the ground.
Someone might be able to help me out on this one? I managed to find very similar looking coins, but never really the same one. It might be they are not even related, only the looks are similar.

The type of coins it is very similar to:
-Lakshmi Narayan, 1587-1627 AD
-Raghudeva Narayan, 1588-1603 AD - in Eastern Kingdom
-Parikshit Narayan, 1603-1613 AD - in Eastern Kingdom



Thank you for the help! :)
Weight and diameter would help

Thanks for the help! Wow, what a coincidence, just the same as mine. About the link you put in the other post refering to "evocation of 2 boudjous-Mahmoud II, Algeria". I'm not really an expert in the language, but shouldn't the inscription at least resemble the one as on the linked coin? I can't see any similarities at all.
It's quite the same wording, at least "Muhammad" is recognizable

True, there is a resemblance in certain parts, maybe it is the printing technique which caused some lines not to be continious, like on the left coin. Do you think we can get any lead on the place of origin and approximate time period of this print? According to the link the time windowis quite broad.

Thank you for the great help anyway! I couldn't get this far without your help :)
It's written in degenerated arabic, probably during the French occupation period of Algeria, which means a large period ...
