Yes, Jaipur silver rupee. This matches KM 145, Madho Singh II. The regnal year of 39 is in the second photo, corresponding to 1918 AD.

​I was wrong.
​It seems 1309 AH..


Therefore it could be 1891 AD..
Let's see if anyone else has other opinions, anyway thanks a lot to everyone for the help
Hello,
For me it's the regnal year : the 39th year of the rule of the Maharaja Ram Singh II. He started to rule in 1835, so this coin can be dated from 1874.

The other caracters seems to be an alef and a star used in decoration.
On the Numista page, the coin doesn't have this star and show a different regnal year : https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces41359.html
I agree it's regnal year 39. Cycnos is most likely correct about the ruler.

Krause says "To distinguish coins between Ram Singh and his son/successor Madho Singh II, note that the coins of Ram Singh have a small slanting cross or dagger between the Ram and Singh symbols, whereas the coins of Singh II do not."

I'm not sure where the Ram and Singh symbols are, or whether there's a slanting dagger or cross. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable than me can determine this. It is true that to me the style of the coin looks more like 1874 than 1918.

P.S. Looking closely at the coin, I see there could be a slanting dagger or cross in the center of the top line of the second photo. This probably indicates Ram Singh.
Thank you very much for the clarifications, I will do some more research, I agree with both of them for Maharaja Ram Singh II.
Thanks 1000

Plus, the year is usually written on the first picture (right side of the middle part) for those coins.
The engraver seems to have run out of space here : we can clearly see "1" followed by what seems to be a "8" attached to a slightly "7"... but I'm not sure where the last digit is supposed to pop up after that :O

Anyway, that seems to be another point in favor of Ram Singh II with the combination 1874 / 39.

Edit :
I was writting my message when you add this auction.
- The first coin use the same die, indeed, but for me the attribution to Madho Singh II was wrong : he didn't rule in the 1870s.
The year should have been "1908" (or at least "198x" instead of "187x") for Madho with this regnal year. So this coin was minted during the rule of Ram Singh II.

- The second coin shows a latter type with the date the date 189[2] and the regnal year 13 of Madho Singh II this time.
Ok, perfect, then I agree to Ram Singh II

Thanks at all for your help
