Very few specimens are known that actually corroborate this important evidence for monetary history. This is one such piece and therefore an important object even though it is a contemporary forgery.

                                                        Mokhadaji Gohil was a contemporary of Muhammad bin Tughlaq of Delhi. He tried to expand his kingdom by defeated small neighbouring rulers. He then conquered the island of Piram and also the seaport of Ghogha. His mission was to make seafaring safe for voyagers and traders. However he incurred the wrath of the Sultan of Delhi who attacked him at Ghogha. Mokhadaji was defeated in the
battle and killed.
No coins attributed to Mokhadaji are yet known and this appears to be the very first specimen. The attribution is tentative but aided by the fact that the coin is very similar to the Chudasama issues of Junagarh, the legend suggests a 14th century date and 'Mukharaja' could well be a Sanskrit form of 'Mokhad', the Gujarati name of the king.
