DELHI: Jalalat al-Din Radiyya, Queen, 1236-1240, AR 1/3 tanka (3.44g), NM, ND, G-, Queen's name as al-sultan al-a'zam / radiyyat / al-duny wa'l-din in central single-line square, parts of a legend in the segments // the caliph al-Mustansir (1226-1242) as on the half tanka of Iltutmish (G-D39), unpublished and of the highest rarity, VF, RRRR.
NOTE: The estimate in the printed catalog was a mistake. This coin was consigned to us with a $10,000 USD reserve (opening bid).
Both obverse and reverse are in central single-line square, whereas the full tanka has both sides always in a double square. This proves that the fractional coin is not a cut-down specimen of the full tanka.
Estimate: 10,000-12,000 USD
