Full Description: Sikh Empire, Silver Rupee, Unidentified Sikh Mint "E", Obv: the "Nanakshahi" couplet "V" arranged as on Amritsar 01.07. Rev: the "Amiritsar" reverse 01.07, but with a different mint name and mark, although quite a large part of the mintname (?) is visible on some coins, it has not yet been read convincingly, 11.3g, 23.48mm, nearly extremely fine, Extremely Rare. Note: The Rupee 32.01.04 was for the first time observed in 2001 and it is still rare, but new specimens (struck from several dies) appear regularly in the market. It seems that all the known coins originated from a single Pakistani hoard of unknown size which is slowly broken-up.
