theunsla Valued Member South Africa 112 Posts	Posted 10/23/2018 2:43 pm Another fork in the road when researching Indian coins from the 1700 and 1800s... Is the coin from Jaipur or Kishangarth? The large Jhar (tree) is evident, but the obverse does not match my Krause pics. Report this Post to the Staff

Kishangarh C #25 is described as a takka weighing 17.25-17.50 g, with an inscription "Muhammad Akbar II" ND 1806-1837 Edited by Seeker55 10/31/2018 6:38 pm Report this Post to the Staff
