Jaunpur Sultanate billon tanka Shams-al-Din Ibrahim Shah AH (8)19 (1416 CE) 19.4mm, 8.98g GG# J6  That's my last one for a while but now we get to enjoy @ttkoo's Bahmani tankas. I'd forgotten how nice those examples are! |

I love the chunky silver too! Probably expensive though...
No change in gap listing; I think for a while I'll try to only repost it when either there's actually a change or the percentage had shifted.

Very nice @ttk! Here is a 1412-dated Groschen from Aachen. I don't have too many more of these things to post.   "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Excellent tanka! IIRC there's about a dozen of those incoming over the next decades  And a pretty Timurid coin, as well! Updated gap listing: 1464, 1463, 1462, 1457, 1454, 1446, 1428, 1426, 1414, and that's it so far but of course there could always be more gaps later. EDIT: and an excellent Aachen groschen from @Spence, too! Looks like it's gone through quite some use; it's fortunate that the date is so relatively clear. EDIT 2: fixed some unfortunate typos.
