Mughal Coins

Shahanshah Akbar

I have a nice set of coins in various denominations issued by Shahanshah Akbar during 1556 a.d. to 1605 a.d.

The first one I want to show is a One Falus coin of the Malwa issue.

The next coin is a “Half Falus” coin from the “Ilahi Month-Azhar”.

And another “One Falus” coin from the Malwa Mint.

Scene from Akbar's Darbar

Durbar at Delhi of Akbar II (1759-1837, ruled 1806-37). The Emperor is shown seated on his throne in the Diwan-i Khas of the Palace at Delhi. Near him stand the Princes of the Blood Royal; on his left Mirza Jahangir Bahadur, Mirza Babar Sahib, Mirza Hussain Bahadur and Mirza KaiQubad, on his right Mirza Salim Bahadur and Mirza Abu Zafar. Nearby is the British Resident at Delhi, Sir David Ochterlony (‘Kharnal Akhtarluni Sahib’) and the nobles of the court stand around on both sides of the throne.

I also have a nice Shahjahan coin (minted in Ujjain).
