History
The coins
of this mint, have the word 'Sitpur' written in a
curious way which makes it read 'Saimur'. 'Saimur' was the ancient Arabic name of the seaport of Chaul on the Konkan coast so some
early numismatists attributed these coins to Chaul.
However, when the coins were struck the name 'Saimur'
had fallen out of fashion for a long time and Chaul
was firmly in the control of the Nizam Shahi
Sultanate. (from ClassNG).
