c.1545 – 1554 CE), Silver Rupee, 11.40 grams, Minted at Ahmedabad, Month Azar, RY 50 (Of Akbar),
historically important, and highly collectible, Very Fine, Very Scarce
In Akbar’s final years, Prince Salim, eager for power, asserted independence by issuing coins from
Ahmedabad, a key Mughal mint. This bold move signalled his provincial support and control over state
machinery, portraying himself as a parallel sovereign and laying the groundwork for his eventual accession
as Jahangir.
