Hi!
I'd like to ask some help with an unidentified indian coin, possibly sikh.
It's copper, quite worn, with these dimensions:
width: 16 mm
heigth: 14 mm
thickness: 5 mm
weigth: 6.6 g
One side has a stylized leaf motive, filled with crossed lines. The other side have some inscripton, in an unknown script to me, but it definitely not looking arabic.
The size, style and the leaf motive suggested me that this might be a sikh 1 paisa. I found some similar ones on Numista, but none of them is an exact match:
N#44943
N#177772
N#73821
I went through of The Coins of the Sikhs, from Hans Herrli. Again, there were some close ones, but nothing definitive. The book mentioned a lot of contemporary copies and imitations and had some examples too. I wonder if my coin is such a local imitation too.
Thank you for any help or insight!
