JohnConduitt Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 725 Posts	Posted 04/08/2022 5:47 pm Hopefully someone will be able to read it. It looks like a falus from the Sultanate of Gujarat, but not quite enough http://www.worldofcoins.eu/forum/in...opic=15201.0 Report this Post to the Staff

andyg Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 1321 Posts	Posted 04/10/2022 3:31 pm I think this is G159... not 100% sure though. https://www.zeno.ru/showphoto.php?photo=188748 Report this Post to the Staff
Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 634 Posts	Posted 04/10/2022 4:10 pm Yes, I concur with the astute observations of JohnConduitt and andyg that this is Sultans of Gujarat G159. The photo in Goron/Goenka matches this coin better than the photo in Zeno. For hand-hammered coins dies and striking positions on the flan often vary.

David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1610 Posts	Posted 04/10/2022 8:03 pm Thanks folks. The reverse is definitely a match but having trouble pairing all elements of the obverse. Hopefully when my GG arrives I'll get a better idea from the image referred to. Ta Report this Post to the Staff
