Assam, Gaurinatha Simha, "country-made" octagonal Rupee, 11.12g, dated "Śake 12", octagonal "country-made" Half-Rupees (3), all undated, usual legends but rather crudely engraved, very fine (4)

See RB pages 120-121, item 44 for the Rupee, and page 121, items 45-50 for the Half-Rupee type. They are all rather crudely engraved, the Rupee also with a meaningless Śaka date. They will have been made at unofficial mints and are found with genuine coins in hoards.
