Hi Jay1234 Its a Didda Rani... Didda Rani 958-1003- Born in 924? to king Simharaja of Lohara.A beautiful woman who even when she was young and could walk was carried everywhere by a female called Valga.The exact reason for this is unclear but records show she was known as Charanhina(footless). She became one of the most ruthless rulers of Kashmir. Being clever and manipulative she ruled for more than 40 years,firstly as regent for her son,whom some say she killed,and then as sole ruler until her death at the age of 79 in 1003. I've added an example from my collection for you to compare...Paul  |

I can across what I believe is another Kashmir coin. This one is 6.2 grams and 20mm. I'm a little lost when it comes to identifying the ruler though...   |

After reviewing your post it looks like my coin is more similar to your posthumous issue rather than the lifetime issue. Would you agree?
