British India, Rupee Weight, obv “MINIMUM WEIGHT OF COMPANYS RUPEE”, rev “WITH 176 2/3grs”, counterstamped “M.C.”, as is one of the pieces in the next lot, but no star and a smaller letter “F” counterstamped below. About very fine, darkly toned. This is possibly an earlier weight in that it mentions “Company”, which makes one think of the East India Company, therefore was probably struck and used before 1854.
