Your opinions please..

1st photo is the normal “6”..

The “6” in the 2nd photo looks like an inverted “2”..

Interesting, you seem to have nailed it, the question is now, how would that be possible?

I'm not seeing it. Looks like a ٦ not an inverted ٢ which would look like an L.

It is what it is, an enigma then?

Are we looking at the same thing?

I think this is right. The 6  used on these coins looks very like a backwards 2. 

Here is a 20 para in my collection for comparison.

I will register them in my files as 2 different types of “6”..

I tried to make some better photos.. 

In the hand you can clearly see a big difference, on the photos not that good although.. 

Anyway, thanks for the replies.. 😀
