Re: Unknown from India?

Appears to be an Indian Temple token. No date or further information. I suggest looking up Temple tokens of India. Good Luck! Enjoy.... I also ran into the dead-end of "miscellaneous temple token" with no luck on this specific one. Does it look cast to you? Would need more Pics. :think:

Depends on the value of the error. Some are just not worth enough to cover the grading costs unless you have a lot of disposable income. :D
