Note:&nbsp;Among all Mughal emperors,&nbsp;Jahangir&nbsp;displayed a&nbsp;unique predisposition towards his coinage. He initiated the practice of striking&nbsp;special coins for court rituals like Nazr &amp; Nisar of these, the&nbsp;Nisar coins&nbsp;functioned as&nbsp;agents to disperse the ill effects of the "evil eye"&nbsp;by distracting the public to make them look away while the emperor presented himself, at the court, or while in procession.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p>Jahangir mentions several times in his autobiography the&nbsp;amount of money he scattered away while staging processions in cities like&nbsp;Ahmadabad, however, it is apparent that the ritual was carried out by&nbsp;other high-ranking members or officials&nbsp;because&nbsp;Nisars&nbsp;are known from places where the emperor never visited.<o:p></o:p>Nisars were often struck in low denominations&nbsp;ostensibly to make a certain amount last when it was scattered over a certain time span while the ritual or procession ensued.&nbsp;By far the most common denomination for&nbsp;Nisar coins was&nbsp;¼ Rupee.<o:p></o:p>In&nbsp;1620&nbsp;(AH1029),&nbsp;Jahangir stayed at Lahore&nbsp;en route to Kashmir from Ajmer and&nbsp;oversaw the completion of many architectural projects in the city.&nbsp;This coin is most likely struck as&nbsp;Nisar&nbsp;when he&nbsp;staged a processional entry into the city.<o:p></o:p>His&nbsp;stay in&nbsp;Lahore&nbsp;on the way back from Kashmir towards the end of 1620 was a&nbsp;brief one lasting only a week.<o:p></o:p>
