    Are the pictures revers and obverse photos? I can't tell if it is a true coin but looks like someone may have turned it into a button as per the 2 holes.

    Sorry - I meant to type "REVERSE" - reverse is back of a coin, obverse is front of a coin - so you are saying both pictures are of the same side? If so, what does the other side look like?

    Looks like Indian Princely States.
    Dipped or plated and turned into a button.
