The coin is good enough, but the information in KM is missing. Was it struck at the Calcutta or the Madras mint?

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

Depending on the diameter, it could be Calcutta or Madras. The following snapshot from Pridmore may help.

And the previous page, dealing mostly with proof issues (of which this coin is not an example).

Thank you, cmerc. That information is missing in my copy of KM. If it is available in Pridmore, it must be a printing error. My specimen is just over 21.1 mm, therefore Calcutta.
