Back, a quick stint on the veranda then I switch on the oven to simmer - hope I don't overheat, going to be around a horrible 90F today.

Shri Shahi?

Good that there are some obscure references to obscure coinages around.

Pity I don't have such obscure coins with reasonable portraits (that portrait on yours is excellent).

Please do not forget to (extensively) comment on the ideas raised in https://goccf.com/t/195654

Since it is not so visible - removed at this stage.

I can hardly make out the image, so I'm probably going to sit this one out.
