Mughals, Shah Jahan, Silver Rupee, Burhanpur, RY 4, KM 226.2



In most coins of Shah Jahan, Kalima appears on the top row of Obv; however in this coin, it is in the middle row. I consider this type relatively scarce than the usual type.

Breathtaking coin !
and the only type (I think) with arrangement of caliph's names and kalima in 3 lines.

Thanks Bernard. Yes, this is the only one type where kalima appears in middle line with names of Caliphs on top/bottom rows.
