Not a usual collecting area for me — hoping someone can give some attribution insight for this rupee (it ain’t a beauty but hey, it’s alright). It weighs 7.8 grams and has a 25mm diameter. Any help is sincerely appreciated.

    British East India Company issue:

    Bengal Presidency, Shah Alam II, Murshidabad, No date, Regnal Year 19

    A rupee would weigh around 11.5 grams so this coin is under-weight.
