Lot description: India Bahmanids of the Deccan. Taj al-Din Firuz Shah (AH 800-825 / AD 1397-1422) gold Tanka AH 810 (AD 1407/1408) MS66 NGC, No mint, Zeno-237443, ICV-2726 (Extremely Rare), cf. G&G-BH61 (RRR; this date not listed). 11.04gm. A wholly inspiring outlier from a seldom-encountered ruler struck in gold. Although Goron and Goenka record only three dates for this type in their The Coins of the Indian Sultanates, owing to the usual poor striking of the type on undersized flans, further dates have since emerged on the market. Nonetheless, the year is only very seldom clear and at least several digits are often not fully legible. Covetable so fine, and distinguished by a bright and luminous planchet that will certainly entice the specialist. https://coins.ha.com/itm/india/india-bahmanids-of-the-deccan-taj-al-din-firuz-shah-ah-800-825-ad-1397-1422-gold-tanka-ah-810-ad-1407-1408-ms6/a/3113-31210.s?type=DA-DMC-CoinArchives-WorldCoins-3113-01082024 HID02906262019 © 2023 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved Estimate: 6000-8000 USD |
