Found this one in the same batch of (mostly British India) coins as the dup coin. Anyone recognize it? 29 mm, 12.1 g. Thanks. Metal is yellowish so maybe some sort of brass?

Thanks Sujit. So no idea how old it is, huh? Does it have any value?

These were most likely made Late 19th century to Early 20th Century. They normally sell for around $10 as per my knowledge.
