MADRAS PRESIDENCY: AR rupee (8.59g), Machhlipatan, AH1174 year 7, KM-390, Pridmore-292var, posthumously in the name of the Mughal emperor Alamgir II, to a reduced weight standard, bold Very Fine, RRR. Neither Pridmore nor KM list dates of this type prior to AH1195, but others of these early dates are known. Cf. Baldwin's auction 40, lot 998, a similar rupee of AH1176 year 8, the only other one of this early period that I have been able to trace.
