Hindu Coins of Medieval India
Auction Date: 12-04-2015
Silver
South India under Sultanate supremacy, unattributable Silver Round 1/5 Rupee with similar inscriptions, as yet unread but appear to suggest either Abdullah Qutb Shah or Sikandar Adil Shah as the issuer named, 2.72g.
Extremely Fine, Very Rare.
It is difficult to say who struck these enigmatic coins, but there are various contenders like local Nayakas, appointees of the Sultans, or Maratha colonizers. A small chance also is of one of the European mercantile companies operating on the Coromandel Coast.
