Note:Nis̱ar-i Ṣāḥib-Qirān-i Thani“Nis̱ar of the Second Ṣaḥib-Qiran”-refers to a ceremonial issue associated with the Mughal emperor, where Ṣaḥib-Qiran was an honorific title meaning “Lord of the Fortunate Conjunction,” originally borne by Timur and later adopted by Mughal rulers to emphasize divine favor and imperial legitimacy.&nbsp;The reverse legend, “Ḍarb-i Dār al-Salṭanat Lahore,” identifies the coin as struck at the imperial mint of Lahore.<o:p></o:p> Nisar coins functioned as agents to disperse the ill effects of the "evil eye" by distracting the public to make them look away while the emperor presented himself, at the court, or while in procession. Jahangir mentions several times in his autobiography the amount of money he scattered away while staging processions in cities like Ahmadabad. however, it is apparent that the ritual was carried out by other high-ranking members or officials because Nisars are known from places, where the emperor never visited.<o:p></o:p>Nisar's are often struck in low denominations ostensibly to make a certain amount last when it was scattered over a certain time span while the ritual or procession ensued. But most such very low denomination Nisars&nbsp;are very rare as their chances of survival in circulation were limited.<o:p></o:p>
