Indian temple‐token / Rama‐Tanka / votive “coin” type (often mistaken for currency) from ~17‐19th / 18th century: what they are, how to recognize them, and issues around authenticity. If you want, I can try to identify yours more specifically if you send photos or the inscriptions.
What are Temple Tokens / Rama‐Tankas
Sometimes called temple tokens, votive medals, Rama‐tankas, Ram Darbar tokens. They are pieces struck (often in silver or silver‐alloy, or even brass) not for regular trade, but for religious or devotional purposes. sikhcoin.blogspot.com+3Wikipedia+3Numista+3
They were given at temples, sold to pilgrims, or kept as household devotional items. Their value is symbolic / devotional rather than monetary.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
