Tripura, Ishvara Manikya (1600), Tanka, 9.40g, Sk.1522, naming two queens named Ishvara, lion facing left, standard above, date below, within circle with outer border of beaded annulets, rev. Śrī Śrī Yutisvara/ Mānikya Deva Śrī/ Isvarā Śrī Isva/rā Mahā Devyah in square with ornamented borders (RB. 190; KM. 114), darkly toned, very fine and very rare.
This issue is remarkable in citing two queens at the same time. The Krishna coins of Yaso Manikya struck during his second reign, occasionally name three queens, but this is very unusual.
Coins of this ruler of any type are seldom offered.
Estimate: £750.00 - £1,000.00
