Lueders Collection. Gold coins of this type were first struck in AH1197-1200 at the weight of the standard Mughal mohur (about 11.00g). They were then replaced by a larger denomination called four pagodas, dated AM1216-1219, at a weight standard of about 13.75g, equal to four times the weight of the standard Mysore gold pagoda of about 3.43g.
