17th Century Gold coins for grading

[myworldcoins]

Hi i'm new to coin grading,but have been hanging around them for 40 odd years

I have two or three gold coins from India that i am having problems identifying,will NGC grade these coins even though they are a little bent,,thats the way they were minted,,and if so and i join to have them graded what sort of cost is involved and do they have to be sent to USA as im in Australia,best regards

[myworldcoins]

People are looking so i will throw up a pic to see if its worth sending off for grading

 

Someone might even be able to tell me what it is

Ask NGC directly about your coins. That is the best way to get an answer.

 

As for the coin you have shown, it is Arabic but that is as far as I got. How much does it weigh and what is the diameter.

Oh and welcome to the forum

[myworldcoins]

Thanks for the welcome,the coin is 3.5 grams and its 20mm in diameter,,i had contacted a NGC international dealer in Singapore re grading but never recieved a reply

Try the ask NGC part of the forum here.

The size, weight and style of the coin suggest that it is an Ottoman Sultani but I can't work out what part of the empire and what date it is.

The date appears to be only three characters. Looks like 972 AH.

[nunfa0]

Oh that explains why I can't find it. My book only goes back to 1172 AH

So does that mean this gold piece is from circa 1565
