A few years ago, my friend Mr. Nelson Wright showed me a 



beautiful rupee in liis possession of this same reign and mint, and, 

 if I remember right, of the same date. Till now that coin has 

 been held to be unique. The A'zam Shah muhr, No. 848 of the 

 British Museum Catalogue, hears no mint-name. Agi^eeing, aa it 

 does, so closely with the rupee here described, it may, 1 fancy, be 

 i^afely assigned to the Ahmadnagar Mint. 



2. A Rupee of Kam Bakhsh; Mmt, Gokalgarh {?). 



Ddte^ Hijri year wanting; regnal year t^j^f. 



Weight, l76 grains.
