Madras Presidency, Chinapatan چینا پتن Mint, Gold Mohur, 2X RY, In the name of Muhammad Shah (1719-1748 AD), Obv:&nbsp;Persian legend inscribed "Sikka Mubarak Badshah Ghazi Muhammad Shah" – translated as "The auspicious coin of the Warrior King Muhammad Shah", Rev:&nbsp;Persian legend "zarb Chinapatan" (Struck at Chinapatan) prominently displayed and fully visible along the bottom margin, 10.85g, 19.00 mm, (Unlisted in KM/Stevens # 2.29/PR # 110), test marks on edge, partially dotted border, sharply struck, luster, choice quality, UNC, Exceedingly Rare.<o:p></o:p>

Note:&nbsp;At least&nbsp;Three other SPECIMENS&nbsp;of this mohur are known, from landmark collections of East India Company coins like&nbsp;David Fore&nbsp;and&nbsp;Paul Stevens, however, it would still be considered&nbsp;Exceedingly Rare. Gold coinage in Madras was largely confined to pagodas until entries in the mint consultations suggest&nbsp;reliable mohurs&nbsp;were desired, as other local mints in the region were producing&nbsp;debased coins. In 1740, the mint carried out an exercise to investigate whether such a coinage would be legitimate.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p>A grant from&nbsp;Assad Khan&nbsp;dated 1692 confirming the long standing right to strike mohurs was found, and&nbsp;precedents during the reigns&nbsp;of&nbsp;Shah Alam Bahadur&nbsp;were noted. Coinage of&nbsp;gold mohurs&nbsp;was ordered in the&nbsp;Consultations of&nbsp;17 February 1743&nbsp;(year 24 of Muhammad Shah's reign). It is presumed that&nbsp;existing rupee dies&nbsp;were UNLISTED for the purpose, and these would have&nbsp;regnal years between 24 and 29.<o:p></o:p>
