Hello

I need some help about that Sinkiang 1/2 miscal I bought recently
The closer types I found are the Zeno coins 19170 & 65035
Numista coin 296623 is also close

On the better side (picture on right) you can read "besh fung" that means " 5 fen " but I can't read the other side (left picture) because a large part is not stamped (I do not found any coin that match with that side)
 
Is that another variation of those "no mint" coins listed by Zeno ?
I don't find any with the same border design but some are close

Have you any idea of the proper identification : it was wrongly listed as a AH1295, Y-A7.1 but I think it is rather Y-A7.2 or more likely Y-A7.3 type
See picture below...

Many thanks

I had that answer from the seller today : " This type is listed as Y-A7.1 in the older version of the Krause catalog that we use. It is listed as Y-A7.3 in the current version. "
