This specimen was lot 2455 in Sincona sale 77 (Zurich, May 2022), where it sold for 2,400 CHF (about US$2,913 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted, "INDIA | Mughal Empire. Shihab al-Din Muhammad Shah Jahan, 1037-1068 H. (1628-1658). Mohur 1065 H.Year 29, Bhilsa. Selten. NGC AU58. Überdurchschnittliche Erhaltung. (Rare, Extraordinary condition.)" This type is listed from twenty mints in India with regnal years 23-24 and 29. 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 scarce mint.
Specification: 10.8-11.0 g, gold, this specimen 10.98 g.
Catalog reference: Fr-801; KM 260.5.
