My guess is this is that a 17th century indian mail short.
Inside the plate there is an inscription :Signature or what else ?
Any comment on it would be welcome.

Hi,
The first line of the devanagri inscription possibly reads ' Mah raja Shri Anup Singh '. The second line I cannot decipher.
May be ascribed to Maharaja Anup Singh of Bikaner 1669/1698.

PS. Sorry for the double post

HI CERJAK
MY FRIEND FROM A ROYAL FAMILY IN RAJASTHAN SAYS
BIKANER STATE ARMOURY
SRI MAHARAJA ANOOP SINGH
SANVAT IS NOT READABLE[HINDI CALENDER LIKE CIRCA]
1638-1898
HE ADVISED THAT THE INSCRIPTION SOUNDS LATER DATE TO MFG OF THE CHAN MAIL,SO PLEASE CHECK AUTHENTICITY,A PROVENANCE IS VERY IMPORTANT
