Note: This Jahangir coin bears a resemblance to Akbar’s standard Bangala type, listed as KM-86. It adopts the familiar Bangala calligraphy seen in earlier Akbar coins, but with the reverse couplet replaced by Jahangir’s royal text, “Noor ud din Jahangir Badshah Ghazi.” Interestingly, the coin features a unique element, portraying either a flag mast or a boat vessel with three masts.
