It was also the adobe of the famous Saint Sheikh Salim Chishti who was greatly revered by Akbar and after whom Jahangir was named.  Although the mint was in operation for a few years and issued gold, silver, and copper coins regularly from AH 985-989. The square rupees struck at the mint are often seen, the gold coins, both round, and square are fairly rare. This round specimen is a one-year type, struck only in AH 986 (1577 AD).
