Recently I've been getting a lot of foreign money, most from Canada. This one came to me via the change from a clothing store. They must have thought it was a quarter because it is very weakly pressed that at the right angle most of design is barely visible.


Back to the coin it has a mintmark under the date. The dot.
This means it is from the Noida (N) mint.
Other mints are:
- B - Mumbai (Bombay), proof issues only
- (B) - Mumbai (Bombay), a diamond
- (C) - Calcutta, no mint mark
- (H) - Hyderabad, a star (1963-- )
- M - Mumbai (Bombay), proof only after 1996
- (T) - Taegu (Korea), a star below first or last date digit
Here's the stats...
Type/Country: 1 Rupee / India
Year: 2001 (N)
Mintage: Not yet known.
Metal: 100% Stainless Steel
Value: $0.15 in VF(this one is lower)
I suspected this may be a cast fake, as fake coins are common outside the U.S., but it weighs 4.85 grams and is magnetic so I will assume it is real just weakly struck.
Do you have a coin from India and want to know its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

1911-1948 AD (I cannot see the date)
About $10.00
Mir Usman Ali Khan rule

To the visitors from http://forum.treasurenet.com...
The reverse image is upside down.
In the circled-center are two dots underneath those dots is the date.
It reads ٦ which is 6 in Arabic.
Year 6 = 1335
1335 = 1916 or 1917 depending on month.
None of these types were made after the 1940s.
Thanks for the visit.
