India (Mughal Empire) 18 century? (silver, legend in Nastaliq script)

3 сообщений • просмотрено 243 раз
Hello colleagues,
could you please point me where to look for these coins in the catalog?
I realize it will take a lot of time to look for specific KM #, but could you please at least point me at a specific period / region to look for?
My guess is that it is India (simple googling by description returns coins of the Mughal Empire, 18th century, which look like these - approximately).
My problem is that I cannot read this script, so if I do not know what to look for exactly, it's hard to identify them visually.
And how much could these coins cost approximately?
My (still modest) collection:

Yes, these look like Indian silver rupees, probably 1700s to early 1800s. Probably some Mughal, some from princely states. It would be best to post clear, cropped photos of one or two coins per thread and you might be able to get some full attributions. Some have dates but aren't very readable in these photos. Typical common rupees in medium condition, like these (unless there's something rare in there), if fully attributed, might sell for about $20-$30 in my opinion.
Yes, they are Indian silver rupees. Some are from Mughal Empire of Emperor Aurangzeb and Farrukhsiyar and some from princely states like Bhopal, Kotah, Alwar etc.
Most seems to be common ones except for the Alwar rupee which is a bit scarce. Also please post the pics of the other side of the coins to help with exact attribution. Some mints of Mughal coins are scarce/rare
As Seeker55 has already mentioned such common coins cost around $20-$30.
