HI PRIYA I'M ARINJIT I HAVE THAT COIN TO BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PRICE OF IT I THINK IT'S PRICELESS MAYBE MORE THAT I CAN IMAGINE.I WANT TO SHARE SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THIS COIN.I COPYED IT BY SITE (COIN QUEST.COM).

The coin is related to Hindu temples, i.e., it is a 'Temple Token', with various Western spellings such as Ram Tanka, or Ramatanka, or Ram Tonka.

The Hindu gods on the token are Lord Rama, his wife Sita, and the monkey god Hanuman around a platform (dubar). The design comes from the great Hindu epic 'Rama's Journey' (the Ramayana). The two figures on the other side of the token are Rama with his half-brother and inseparable companion, Lakshman. You can find modern reproductions of these coins at many places on the Internet (do a search on 'ram darbar' or 'ram tanka') and at a few coin dealers, for example, JoelsCoins.com. Joels Coins has modern reproductions on sale for a few US dollars. The modern coins show false dates, so it is difficult to know precisely when a particular coin was minted. Most coins were manufactured during the 20th century and intentionally made to look old.

DO NOT CLEAN YOUR COIN. CLEANING RUINS VALUE.

At SitaRamaSwamy.com you can see an image of what appears to be a genuine Ram Tanka minted in brass or gold. Comparing the coin from Shailender (in our main image) with the coin from Sita Rama Swamy (with the blue background), you can see several differences. To the best of our knowledge, Sita Rama Swamy's coin is a genuine ancient Ram Tanka, and Shailender's coin is a modern reproduction.

If you are buying or selling one of these coins, it is up to you to determine if it is and old, genuine Temple Token or a modern reproduction. The values will be very different.

The table below gives our approximation of value in US dollars for the various forms of this interesting coin. The values in our table are very approximate and represent retail prices a coin collector might pay for a problem-free coin without scratches, stains, cleanings, or other damage. Not shown in the table is any sentimental or religious value, which can be substantial. These are prices a buyer would expect to pay. If you have a coin to sell to a dealer, he or she would pay wholesale price, which is significantly lower.

Modern Reproduction Genuine Ancient Coin Copper/Brass/Bronze $5 $250 Silver $60 $420 Gold $800 $3600 OR MAYBE MORE THEN THAT
