Title: Akbar - AH 968 - Hazrat Delhi
Post by: jaspersaini on September 21, 2019, 05:25:43 AM

This coin was sold as Jaunpur Rupee, but there isn't flower motif on it, and it's similar to the Delhi mint Rupees,

10.15 Gm. x 23.3 MM, I can see AH 968. This Rupee is lower in weight, compare to the usual 11 Gms.+

Similar to Mughal Akbar Hazrat Delhi Mint AH 964 Kalima Type Silver Rupee Coin P 1179 ? (https://indiancoins.com/product/mughal-akbar-hazrat-delhi-mint-ah-964-kalima-type-silver-rupee-coin-p-1179/)

I would also be interested in a confirmation of your attribution. The ex-centrism of the side of the left gives interesting detail of the inscription outside the circle.

I would concur with Hazrat Dehli.

Thanks, Amit. I already put this Rupee under Akbar's Delhi coins.
