I think it is this one - the first image is upside down - your coin has a date of 1944 (1887? Gregorian)

It sure looks like that coin but 1944 is not listed in any coin books.

If it is, you could add a date line for your coin on that sheet or let me know and I will

I just looked at that site and couldn't find 1944, but you found it.
It is for sale on e-bay and I was thinking about buying it, but they want more for it than it is worth.
Thanks for all your help.

I have one myself.

These are pretty rare. Don't pass up on it!

I bought a pair for only a buck. Together they're worth 4 bucks.

Check out your coin in India-Princely states / Baroda. It's listed there.
