E.I.C. Bengal Presidency
East India Company, Bengal Presidency, A jeweller's copy of a Murshidabad gold Quarter-Mohur, 1204h, yr 19, edge grained left, 3.10g/12h (Mitchiner IMT –). Light file marks on edge, otherwise extremely fine, excellent style £200-£260

Provenance: SNC (London) November 1980 (9425), recté a jeweller's copy, ticket.
Owner's ticket.
Although this coin is of good style it differs somewhat from official issues of the type (Prid. 73), particularly in the positioning of the regnal year; this, together with the edge being grained left instead of right suggest that it is a jeweller's copy
