This handsome grouping offers the SCARCE and seldom seen chance at a half set of Ilhai Zodiacal Month dated Rupees. Partial sets of Zodical dated Rupees from the same mint are uncommon, particularly so when considering the elevated grade levels of the examples, as all examples are at least at the Gem level, with several "top pop" specimens. Collecting the Rupees of Jahangir by month is supremely popular, and this group offers the dedicated collector thereof the chance at acquiring a significant portion of a set.

Estimate: $3000 - $5000
