Madras Mint Early Coinages Moghul System Gold
Mohur
Alamgir II 1754 to 1759 Mint Name: Arcot
|
Mohurs of Alamgir II with the
Arcot mint name are known but are extremely rare. The question of whether the
coins were actually issued from the mint at Madras as opposed to
another mint (e.g. Arcot itself) is one that has not been satisfactorily
answered. Wiggins argument is rather weak.
