Mysore. Tipu Sultan 2 Rupees AH 1218 Year 8 (1803/1804) MS61 NGC, Patan (Seringpatan) mint, KM127a, Dav-250. A fully struck example, visually defined by a lovely cabinet patina of intermingled graphite and charcoal color. The offering is highly appealing in hand, subdued luster noted underneath this balanced patina, coupled with little to no handling evident throughout. Very rare in this certified quality, and the sole specimen certified by NGC to date.
