Copper Coins of India  (Parts I and II) by W. H. Valentine.

Part I covers Bengal and the United Provinces of Agra, Oudh, and Garwal.

This 266 page book is very well illustrated with maps and line drawings of over 1000 coins (in this case better then photos.)

Part II covers the Punjab, Bahawalpur, Chamba, Patiala, Baluchistan, Kashmir, and Simir.

This book is well worth having.
