Akbar, Silver Rupee, 11.16 gm, AH 966, Kalima type. Mint is in margins on Rev and can't be conclusively attributed. Obv: Kalima, Rev: emperor's full name starting from top to bottom.By judging the fabric of the coin and strange legend arrangements it could be attributed to possibly from Bengal province. However since only 2-3 specimens of this very rare coin known to the auctioneer till date the correct attribution of mint is conjectural. On most of Akbar Kalima type rupees the name of the emperor begin from bottom to top while in this case it's exactly opposite i.e from top to bottom. Very fine +, very rare.
