Elichpur coppers were known from
Aurangzeb onwards but Shah Jahan is probably very rare!
Shah Jahan dam, Elichpur mint, Sahib Qiran thani type Ry2..
Probably unique so far!!
Shailen said: I'd say the RY should be X2 rather than 2X, perhaps (3)2. Towards the end of the Shahjahan's reign Mughal troops had been active in Marathwada and South Maharashtra pursuing a campaign against Adil
