This authentic brass seal/token represents a fascinating piece of independent India's administrative history, issued by the Government of Maharashtra between 1960 and 1990. Crafted in brass and weighing 6.84 grams, this uniface token features a negative impression seal bearing the official Government of Maharashtra insignia with "Election" marking—likely used during electoral processes or official government functions of that era. Maharashtra's formation in 1960 marked a significant milestone in India's linguistic reorganization, making this token a tangible artifact from the state's formative decades. The seal demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship typical of mid-20th century governmental tokens, with its negative impression design serving both functional and symbolic purposes in administrative procedures. Graded in Extremely Fine condition, this token showcases excellent preservation with minimal wear, making it a desirable acquisition for numismatists and Indian history enthusiasts. Its rarity lies in its specific governmental purpose and the limited circulation of such administrative tokens compared to conventional coins. For collectors focused on post-independence Indian memorabilia, state government artifacts, or electoral history, this seal represents an uncommon and historically significant piece that documents India's democratic institutions and administrative infrastructure during a transformative period. --- #
