Hello,

I checked everything, also other catalogues, but I do not find this type (design, year).

I think it is a 1 ½ Dokda.

Could somebody help me.

 

Thank you

Rupert

Hi Rupert,

 

the website rareindiancoins.com contains an entry that reads: India Princely State: Kutch 1-1/2 Dokdo, Pragmalji II (VS 1917-1932 / 1860-1875 AD. Weight: 9.75 gms, Copper coin, Ref Y#11 page no 353 of South Asian book.

 

Best regards

Thomas

 Guessing the  ١٨٨٠  [1880]  on first picture is the tricky part - 

whereas if the the third number were inverted it would 

be alright, to make  ١٨٧٠  [1870]  fit the dates in that link?

Thank you.

Yes, that's exactly what I don't understand. Either I have a new type here, a misprint or an extra year.

 

I think it's a misprint. For Y# 11 (1½ Dokda - Victoria [Pragmalji II]), there are already three misprints with 1780 (instead of 1870). Perhaps someone changed the ‘7’ from 1780 to an ‘8’ after the misprints, and it became a new misprint. I know this is more than speculation.

 

I was hoping that one of you could help me.
