From what little I have seen of Elichpur coinage I gather that they are .. uhhh ... somewhat sloppily struck. Knowing your preferences, I presume a nice, clean, well struck coin with full date like this is exceptional?

No idea Peter but yes Elichpur paisa's are a bit dumpy.

THough Elichpur coppers are fairly easy to come by, getting a fully dated piece, either amongst the Mughal or the state issues is fairly difficult.
