JHALAWAR: AR nazarana rupee (13.89g), Jhalawar, VS(19)15 year 3, Y-6b, in the name of Queen Victoria, struck to a heavier standard comparable to Jahangir's 17th century sawai rupee, mount removed (as virtually always!), same dies as the year 3 example illustrated in SCWC, VF-EF, RRR. The regnal years do not refer to the ruler or to Queen Victoria, but to the transfer from the coins citing Bahadur II to Victoria in VS1915 (1858/59), which became the frozen Vikrama date on all subsequent Jhalawar coinage. Year 3 (1860/61) falls within the reign of Prithvi Singh (1845-1875). This special type was probably produced solely for attachment or suspension.
