The first specimen was lot 1105 in Stephen Album sale 43 (Santa Rosa, CA, May 2022), where it sold for $840. The catalog description[1] noted, "NEPAL: Tribhuvana Vira Vikrama, 1911-1950, AV mohar, VS1991 (1934), NGC graded MS63." This type was struck VS 1969, 1975, 1978-1991, 1998-2005. No date is given a premium, more likely due to lack of interest than any variation in rarity. Nepal was and is an independent nation between India and Tibet but under the strong influence of the British raj. Mohars also exist in silver. The second specimen was lot 3289 in Sincona sale 83 (Zurich, May 2023), where it sold for 1,400 CHF (about US$1,874 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[2] noted, "NEPAL, Tribhuvana, Bir Bikram, 1968-2007 VS (1911-1950 AD). Mohar 1991 VS (1934 AD), NGC MS65. Prachtvolle Erhaltung (Magnificent condition)."
