I have a nice 1531 I can post later - but there are a couple of hoops to jump through first :)

This thread was speaking to me so now I am the new owner of:

How-Far-Back-Can-We-Go?-Ended-At-1492-Waiting-On-1491

Bronze tanka (bahloli) of Humayun (1530-1556), Mughal Empire, 1534 AD

Persian inscriptions on both sides. Dated to 940 AH = 1534 AD. Mint of Dar-ul-Khalifat ("seat of the Khalifate") Agra. Excellent coin, very attractive, thick and heavy, rare in such high quality. 17mm in diameter, 9.02 grams.

Humayun (March 6, 1508 - February 22, 1556), second Mughal Emperor, and ruled in India from 1530-1540 and 1555-1556.


(well, it should be on its way to me soon)

If anyone has the notion to 'pull a Moe' there are quite a few 1534 specimens of mostly Prussian coins on ebay right now, the cheapest of which seem to be ~ $50.
If the decimal point were relocated slightly, I'd grab this one over any of those nickel-size well worn coins: http://www.ebay.com/itm/German-Stat...em2c6a44a187
