These Nimak Rupees have proved rather enigmatic ever since Rodgers wrote about them. He read the mintname on these coins as nimak, which means salt and attributed the rupees to a mint at Pind Dadan Khan, a town at the foot of the Salt Range. This reading was noted with some scepticism as having the name of a commodity as a mintname would be most unusual. Nevertheless, Jyoti Rai in ONS 143 demonstrated that the British had requested the Lahore Durbar to establish a mint at Pind Dadan Khan for the recoining of light-weight Afghan Rupees which were circulating in the area. This mint was in operation from October 1847 to late 1848 which corresponds with the dates found on the Nimak Rupees.
