QU'AITI STATE OF SHIHR & MUKALLA: Awadh b. 'Umar, 1881-1902, AR rupee, NM, AH(130)7, KM-33, 16 mm countermark on British India rupee of Victoria, 1862, KM-473.1, Extremely Fine on ef host, R. The host rupee has 6 pellets below the date, and has obverse type A. The upper area on the reverse is obscured by the countermark, but there is only one version of type A with 6 pellets, struck at Bombay in 1868. The blank area in the upper left of the countermark was caused by the stamp held slightly to the right, whence it is deeply struck on the head of Victoria, leaving the stamp missing the surface to the left of the bust. Considered a spurious issue.
