Auction: 13019 - North East Indian Coins from the Nicholas Rhodes Collection
Lot: 536

Ladakh, AR Ja'u, 2.03g, in the name of Mahmud Shah but rather crudely engraved, legend with large katar on reverse (KM. 6), toned very fine, scarce

This type was struck after Ladakh had been conquered by Gulab Singh and the Doghra army in 1835. Until 1845, Gulab Singh acknowledged Sikh suzerainty and rules Ladakh as part of Jammu. This issue shows signs of significant debasement.
