Help identifying Cochin Gold Fanam ?

6 posts
This looks to me like a Indian State ( Cochin ) Gold Fanam, but I seem to have trouble matching the exact coin.
Gold, diameter 8-9mm (uneven ) . Weight around 0.4g .



Any help greatly apreciated ! Thanks !
I would say, you have this coin:

​That was my first thought,but on this one on the left of the "U" there is simply a solid dot, while mine has some kind of more complex design. Also on the same side under the "U" mine has just 4 dots in a row on the top, not 5 + 3 above.
hm..
on this coin seems the structure to be on the other side.

But maybe this coin could be yours:

This seems to be the one ( I think the last link you had is the same , but the attribution is different ) :

The attribution is
INDIA-PRINCELY STATES, COCHIN, FANAM, 1795-1850, , GOLD, KM:10

The picture in KM cuts off most details .

Numista has a significantly different picture for the same coin (the one alamir mentioned in his first response). Would anyone with experience in Indian coins know which one is correct ?
as the Numista page says: "Hand made so small variations exist within the pattern."
