Hello PaulMcCormick, the coin you posted (Mushida bad mint) is found with two types of edges, vertically milled and obliquely milled. From the image of the edge posted, it is difficult to make out the type. Still it is most probably type KM# 99,Standard catalogue of South Indian coins and paper money, Krause publications.

During the reign of Akbar, coins used to be struck with the regnal year and month of production (in Ilahi calendar). This coin is an issue in the month of "Farwardin" of Ilahi year 47.  |

Hi drnsreedhar,
I put two posts a couple of days back with some older Indian coins. Any help with identification would be much appreciated!

@smallcentguy: I have tried to identify your coins. It will be easier for me to locate your posts if you could kindly paste a link to one of my threads. Thanks.

drnsreedhar, Thanks for all the info! I'm hoping you can give me some information about this silver rupee I picked up recently. I see that it has a date of ry-23, but that is all I know.   |
