Sincona sale 77, lot 2461

This specimen was lot 2461 in Sincona sale 77 (Zurich, May 2022), where it sold for 1,500 CHF (about US$1,821 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted, "INDIA | Mughal Empire. Muhyi al-Din Muhammad Aurangzeb Alamgir, 1068-1118 H. (1658-1707). Mohur 1076 H.Year 8, Aurangabad. NGC MS62. Überdurchschnittliche Erhaltung. (Extraordinary condition.)" This type is listed from 63 mints in India with regnal years 3-32. The Mughal Empire dominated India during the seventeenth century but broke up in the eighteenth century under external attack, Hindu rebellion and civil war. This collapse allowed European colonizers entry into the subcontinent and eventual British control.

Recorded mintage: unknown but a common mint.

Specification: 10.8-11.0 g, gold, this specimen 10.89 g.

Catalog reference: Fr-810; KM 315.10.
