Auction: 13019 - North East Indian Coins from the Nicholas Rhodes Collection
Lot: 377
Assam, Lakshmi Simha, octagonal Rupee, 11.34g, Sk. 1700, type and legend as previous lot but rare date (RB. Q33.1; KM. 182), very fine
The Rupees of the last years of Lakshmi Simha's reign are surprisingly rare, especially those of Sk. 1701 (see next lot). When writing their book, RB had not come across any Rupee dated Sk. 1702, although Quarter-Rupees of that date are quite common.
