The present volume of the Catalogue of Indian Going contains the description of the issues of the Moghul Emperors of Hindustan, from the foundation of the Empire by Babar, Humayiin, and Akbar, down to its gradual absorption into the realm of the Honourable East India Company. It also includes such coins of the Company as were issued in imitation of the currency of the Moghuls. The transliteration of Arabic and Indian names of persons, places, &c., in this volume, is in accordance with the latest official system of the Indian Government. Familiar names of places are spelt in the ordinary English way. The metal of each specimen is stated, and its size in inches and tenths of inches. The weight of the gold and silver examples is given in English grains. Tables for converting grains into grammes, and inches into millimetres as well as into the measures of Mionuet^s scale, are given at the end of the volume. A comparative table of the years and months of the Hijrah and of the Christian era has been added, with a view to facilitating reference to the standard works on Indian history where the European computation is adopted. 1733533 vi EDITOR'S PREFACE. A specially prepared map of India is inserted to illustrate the distribution of the mint-cities throughout the Empire. Typical specimens are figured in the thirty-three plates which are executed by the autotype mechanical process from casts in plaster. The whole work is written by Mr. Stanley Lane- Poole, and I have carefully collated it with the coins. KEGINALD STUART POOLE. AUTHOE'S INTEODUCTION. § 1. HISTORICAL OUTLINE. The history of the Moghul Empire of Hindustan, wliicli nominally extends from 1525 to 1857, is really contained in much narrower limits. The assured domination of the Moghul Emperors begins with the building-up of the empire by Akbar (1556-1605) and practically ends with the death of Aurangzib, the last autocrat of their line, in 1707. Before Akbar there was no Moghul Empire, but only the attempt to create one. After Aui'angzib there was still for awhile the framework of an empire, but no emperor : the power fell into the hands of Ministers and Viceroys, and political disintegra- tion prepared the way for British expansion. Not much more than half a century had passed since Aurangzib 'Alamgir was carried to his tomb near Aurangabad, when the East India Company began to gather up the fragments that remained of Akbar's empire, and the Emperor himself became their pensioner (1765). The historical founder of the empire was Akbar; but the first of his line to assert imperial power in India was his grandfather Babar ; unless, indeed, the precedence belongs to his ancestor TImur, in virtue of his earlier raids upon Hindustan. Babar, or " Tiger, " also called Muhammad and surnamed Zahir-ad-din, "Up- holder of the Faith," was the son of 'Umar Shaikh, the son of Abu-Sa'id, seventh Khan of Transoxiana; and Abu-Sa'id was the son of Muhammad Sultan the viii BABAB. son of Mii-an Sliah, tlie son of Timur. Babar thus lineally descended in the fifth generation from Timur, on his father's side; on his mother's, he traced his pedigree to Chingis Kaan. He was born in 1482 (a.h. 888) in the province of Farghanah, then ruled by his father, whom he succeeded as chieftain abont the age of twelve. Henceforward his precocious youth was spent in strife and war. He successfully withstood his envious kinsfolk in Farghanah, and even made incursions into the territory of Samarkand at the age of fifteen ; but was eventually defeated and driven from Transoxiana by Shaibani and his Uzbegs about 1504, and forced to console himself with the subduing of Afghanistan and Badakhshan (a.h. 911). For twenty years he remained outwardly content with the kingship of Kabul and the country round about ; though he confesses in his Memoirs that from the first he had meditated the invasion of India, but " sometimes from the misconduct of my Amirs and their dislike of the project, sometimes from the cabals and opposition of my brothers, I was prevented from prosecuting the expedition," * He was forty-three years of age before he was able to realize his dream. At the close of 1525 (Safar 932)t he began to occupy the Panjab with the connivance of the Afghan governor of Lahore. The disunited state of the so-called " Pathan " kingdom offered little resistance to the invader : India * Tjizafc-iBftbar'f, Erskine's (1829) translation, 290.

Nevertheless, with the aid of his nobles and feudatories, Ibrahim contrived to bring together an army reckoned by his enemy at 100,000 men, with a thousand elephants. The decisive battle took place on the historic plain of Panipat, 20th April, 1526, and the defenders were routed with the loss of their king and 15,000 men.* Babar quickly occupied Dehli and Agrah, and after defeating the Eajputs under Sanka Rana of Udaipur, reduced Chanderi, their stronghold, in the following spring. Three years later he died at Agrah, 29th December, 1530 (9 Jumada I., 937),t aged 48, sovereign " of a vast though incoherent empire, extending from Badakhshan and Kunduz, beyond the Hindu Kush, including all Afghani- stan, the Panjab, Hindustan, Rajputana, and Bihar. "J The kingdoms of Bengal, Gujarat, and Malwah, and the Deccan (Dakhin) formed no part of his dominions. Babar's Memoirs form a refreshingly frank and vivid autobiography. They give one the impression on the one hand of a gallant and daring soldier, and on the other of a jovial, heedless, boon-fellow. A great change had come over the Mongols, or Moghuls,§ since the days when Tamerlane led his savage pagans on their skull-hunts. The " Tiger's " Moghuls were compara- tively civilized Muslims. " Contemporary writings and drawings show Babar and his followers as a jovial crew of men-at-arms, with fair and ruddy complexions, and * Tuzak-i BdhaH (Evskine), 304. t Niz^m-ad-din, Tabakdt-i Akbari, ED. v. 188.

Only his remark- able bodily vigour enabled him to trifle thus with his health. We hear of his riding from Kalpi to Agrah, a distance of 160 miles, in two days; and to his death he combined extraordinary activity with intervals of reckless self-indulgence, which must have hastened his end. His character is a singular mixture of rollicking good- humour, chivalrous generosity, and now and then truly Asiatic ferocity. His portrait, which has been preserved in the copy of his Memoirs which belonged to Shah- Jahan, shows us "a thoughtful gentleman, with pale, oval face, and small, pointed, black moustache." Some notion of his standard of civilization may be derived from his criticism of the shortcomings of the Hindus, of whom he entertained a very mean opinion. " Hindustan," he says, " is a country that has few pleasures to recommend it. The people are not hand- some. They have no idea of the charms of friendly society, of frankly mixing together, or of familiar inter- course. They have no genius, no comprehension of mind, no politeness of manner, no kindness or fellow- feeling, no ingenuity or mechanical invention in planning or executing their handicraft works, no skill or know- ledge in design or architecture ; they have no good horses, no good flesh, no grapes or musk-melons, no good fruits, no ice or cold water, no good food or bread * Keene, op. cit., 53. HUMAYUN. xi in their bazars^ no baths or colleges, no candles, no torches, not a candlestick/'* Babar's successor was his eldest son, Muhammad f HumAyun (^'Augustus"), surnamed Nasir-ad-din, "De- fender of the Faith," who had taken part in his father's Indian campaigns. He was born 6th February, 1511 (916 A.H.),J and was, therefore, not yet twenty when he came to the throne. His first enterprise was an unsuc- cessful attempt to conquer the united kingdom of Gujarat and Malwah, whence his attention was called away by the advance of Sher Khan § with the Afghan forces of Bengal. After a prolonged struggle Humayun was decisively worsted in 1542 (949), and took refuge in Sind. For thirteen years the son of Babar remained in exile, ruling his father's old kingdom of Kabul, whilst Sher Shah, by his admirable organization of the government of Hindu- stan, laid the foundations of the future empire of Akbar. In 1555 Humayun recovered Lahore, and after a sharp contest drove the Pathan forces to the eastward and occupied Dehli, where an accident ended his life in January, 1556 (963). He was a generous and amiable profligate, much addicted to opium. With the accession of Humayuu's son, Akbak ("Maximus"), surnamed Jalal-ad-din, or "Glory of the Faith," the greatest epoch of the Moghul Empire begins. Born on 15th October, 1542 (5 Rajab 949 ||), Akbar was only in his fourteenth year when he came to the throne ; but he possessed a capable guardian in the * Tuzak-i BdhaH (Erskine), 333. t It was the fashion of the Moghul Emperors to include Muham- mad among: their names. % Ahu-l'Va,7A, Akbarndmah, ED. v. 188, note.

Turkoman Bairam Khan, who commanded the Moghul army and acted as Prime Minister during the Emperor's minority. The Hindu general, Himti, had already seized Dehli, when Bairam gave him battle, and utterly defeated him (5th November, 1556) on the field of Panipat — the scene of so many eventful conflicts in Indian history ; and the boy-emperor found himself, at a single blow, master of most of Hindustan, though his authority in distant parts of his nominal dominions was at first somewhat shadowy. Akbar soon took the reins of power into his own hands. Henceforward for many years his career is a long record of conquest and annexation. Dehli and Agrah were his from the day of Panipat ; Gwalior was subdued in 1558 (966), Jaunpur and Eantambhor in 1559 ; in 1561 Malwah was overrun, and Burhanpur in Khandesh fell in 1562 (969) ; in 1567 (975) Chitor, the stronghold of the Rajputs, commanded by their Raja, Jai Mai, was besieged and stormed, and Rajputana for a while submitted to the Moghuls.* Gujarat, nominally a province of the empire, rebelled, but was brought into subjection in 1572 (980) : Akbar entered its capital, Ahmadabad, and reduced Surat, Cambay, and Baroda, f Junagarh, the stronghold of Kathiawar, was annexed in 1591 (999). X Bengal was another province held on an illusory tenure. It was still ruled by the Pathans in nominal dependence upon the empire. But when Daud, of the family of Sher Shah, succeeded to the viceroyalty, he waxed contumacious, and rose in arms, A policy of conciliation proved unavailing, and Daud was overthrown in a battle near Jalasur (1575), and finally killed in 1577 (984). Akbar's authority was thus established in Bengal, though this and other provinces (such as Orissa, Gujarat, and Rajputana) were disturbed from time to * Tabdkdt-i AUaH, ED. v. 327-328. t Ibid.

Badaklishan was abandoned to the Uzbegs in 1585 (993), but, by way of compensation, Kashmir was annexed in 1587, and Kandahar six years later. In the Deccan, Akbar's power was, so far, scarcely felt : he had, indeed, occupied Khandesh and Berar, and taken Burhanpur and Elichpur ; but he had reinstated the native Rajas, whose tribute was intermittent and fealty barely nominal. In 1593 he had again to reduce Khandesh, and to occupy Ahmadnagar, the capital of Berar ; but in each case he adhered to his policy of rein- stating the native rulers as feudatories of the empire. The Raja of Khandesh for a time justified Akbar's clemency, but Berar was soon in rebellion, partly by reason of the incompetence of Prince Murad, the drunken viceroy of the Deccan. The Emperor's trusted Minister, Abu-1- Fazl, author of the famous Ain-i Ahbari, or " Institutes of Akbar," was appointed to supersede him in 1599,* and Akbar himself moved south. Daulatabad had already fallen ; Asirgarh, the formidable stronghold of Khan- desh, endured a six months' siege, and only surrendered at last to the indomitable persistence of Abu-1-Fazl ; while Ahmadnagar fell in 1600 (1008). An inscription at Fathpur records how " His Majesty the King of Kings, whose court is Paradise, the shadow of God, Jalal-ad-din Muhammad Akbar Padishah, conquered the Deccan and Dandesh, f which was heretofore Khandesh, in the Ilahl year 46, which is the year of the Hijrah 1010," &c.| * Murad died soon afterwards of delirium tremens. f The name was temporarily changed in honour of the new governor, Daniyal, Akbar's son, a drunkard like his brothers. Like Murad, he fell a victim to his vice. Though kept snder restraint his servants smuggled liquor for him in a match-lock barrel, which the prince facetiously called his " bier." Keene, op. cit. 157. X The conquest of Asirgarh took place in the 45thyear,as recorded by the commemorative coin No. 166, but the honours were distributed some months later. On the Ilahi era and reckoning see below, § 4, p. Ixi. xiv AKBAR. In many of these successful sieges the guns were served by Enghsh artillerymen. The Deccan provinces, how- ever, in spite of this triumphant record, were still in a disturbed state at the time of Akbar's death, which occurred in October, 1605 (1014), when he was sixty- three years of age. The preceding brief catalogue of Akbar's campaigns, by which he obtained and kept control over an empire which stretched from Kabul to Dhakka and from Kashmir to Ahmadnagar, is necessary to the numismatist ;* but these warlike triumphs form but a small part of his claim to our admiration. In dealing with the difficulties arising in the government of a peculiarly heterogeneous empire, he stands absolutely supreme among oriental sovereigns, and may even challenge comparison with the greatest of European rulers. It may be true, as Mr. Keene urges, that he owed much of his success to the example of organization set by his able predecessor, Sher Shah ; and it is certain that he was deeply indebted to the talents of advisers like Todar Mai and Abu-1-Fazl ; but the wisdom of the monarch is shown in the choice of his ministers and in his receptivity to tlie teaching of history. A dozen Burleighs could not have built up the power of England in the sixteenth century without the vigorous mind of Elizabeth to inspire and control them ; and all the Todar Mais in Hindustan could not have welded together into an abiding empire the races, states, and religions of India in the sixteenth century without the aid and countenance of the commanding genius of Akbar. He was himself the spring and fount of the sagacious policy of his government ; and the proof of the soundness of his system is the continuance of the Moghul Empire after his death, in spite of the follies * See the records of these conquests oa the coins themselves, infra , p. li. AKBAR. XV and vices of his successors, until it was undone by a deliberate reversal of his policy in the bigoted reaction of his great-grandson Aurangzib. To have united under one firm government Hindiis and Muhammadans, Shi'ah and Sunnis^ Rajputs and Afghans, and all the numerous races and tribes of Hindustan, was a Herculean task the difficulty of which can be adequately appre- ciated only by those who know the force of caste pre- judices and religious obstinacy in Indian history. Akbar was the first Indian sovereign who solved the problem, if only temporarily. Our own administrators have perhaps at length succeeded in mastering it after a century of perplexing experience. To comment in detail on Akbar's system of govern- ment is beyond the present purpose. It will be sufficient to indicate a few salient features in his policy. His chief difficulties lay in the diversity and jealousies of the races and religions with which he had to deal. He met them by wise toleration. In religion, his latitude went to perhaps fantastic lengths. He encouraged Portuguese priests and Christian pictures and statues; established a hall, called the Diwan-i Khas or 'Ibadat Khanah, " Hall of Worship,^^ for the discussion of philosophical and religious problems by men of diverse opinions; sanctioned something approaching sun-worship, and introduced the solar reckoning of time and the Persian months ; abolished* the Kalimah, or Muham- madan profession of faith, on the money and in state documents, &c., and substituted the simple formula, Allahu Akbar, ''God is most great,^' with the re- sponse, Jalla Jaldluhu, " Glorified be his glory. ^' In short, he set up an eclectic pantheism, in the place of Islam, and selected from various creeds what he thought worthy of admiration, just as he selected * See below, p. Ixvii. xvi AKBAR. his wives from different nations and creeds, Hindu, Christian, and Muslim, with an impartiality never ventured upon by previous Muhammadan sovereigns. Whatever good or harm his Din or Tauliid Ildhi, "■ Divine Monotheism," may have done, the practical side of it, as shown in the abolition of all taxes upon religious non- conformity, was a strong influence towards consolidating the empire by making all subjects equal in the sight of the tax-gatherer. To conciliate the prejudices of race, he adopted the principle of reinstating evicted Eajas as tributary chiefs of the empire. He employed Hindus, Shi'ah, and Sunnis equally, and conferred like honours upon each denomination. To form the leading men of all races and creeds into a loyal body, he established a sort of feudal aristocracy, called mansabddrs, who were in receipt of salaries or held lands direct from the crown, on condition of supplying men and elephants for the imperial armies : the ranks were graduated like the degrees of chin in the modern Russian bureaucracy, and, like them again, the rank was not hereditary. A similar system was employed in Egypt at the time of the Mamluk Sultans, from whom Akbar may have derived the idea. Its merits in India were unquestion- able. Hindus and Moghuls and Persians stood on an equality as " Amirs of 5000 " or " of 500 " men, and all were under the command of one of the chief officers of the empire, the AmIr-al-Umara, or Premier Noble — the Earl Marshal of Hindustan. The dangers of a territorial aristocracy (which in some form the mansahddrs were sure to become) were minimised by a rigorously equitable inspection and collection of the land rents, which formed the bulk of the state revenue (about 10 crores* of rupees). * The crore {karor) is 100 lakhs of 100,000 rupees, and is there- fore equal to 10,000,000 rupees, or, taking the rupee at 2s. 3d. of English money of the time, 1,125,0002. sterling. JAHANQIB. xvii Other duties had been extensively remitted, and the taxation on the whole was light, the currency was admirable, and the laws were improved. Akbar's portrait has been drawn by his son Jahangir. He was somewhat over the middle height, with a wheat- coloured complexion, inclining to dark ; his eyes and eye- brows were black ; his body stout, the chest and brow open ; and his arms and fingers were long. His voice was ringing, and in spite of his lack of education his speech was elegant. " His manners and habits were quite different from other people's, and his countenance was full of godlike dignity."* Akbar was followed by his son Salim,t born of a Eajput princess in 1569 (977), who was proclaimed Emperor, 21st October, 1605 (8 Jumada II., 1014), with the style of Nur-ad-din ("Light of the Faith'') Muhammad JahIngir ("World-grasper"). He was thirty-seven years old, and maturity had in some degree mellowed his character. He had more than once broken into open insurrection against his father; he was suspected on very good grounds of having instigated the murder of Akbar's trusted friend and minister, Abu-1-Fazl ; he was possessed of a violent and arbitrary temper; and he was a notorious and habitual drunkard. After his accession, however, he displayed little or nothing of his former ferocity, and became almost amiable. Indeed, Sir Thomas Roe describes him, after dinner, as " very affable, and full of gentle conversation.''^ He treated rebellious officers with clemency ; and he not only issued a treatise against tobacco and an edict against intem- perance, but himself set the example by seriously reforming his own habits. In his marvellously candid * Tuzak-i JaMngiri, ED. vi. 290. f See tlie coins, Nos. 288, 289. J Letter to Archbp. of Canterbury, 29 Jan. 1615, apud Pinkerton, Coil, of Voyages, viii. 46. C xviii JAHANQIE. Memoirs^ he relates how (like his wretched brothers, Murad and Daniyal)he had been addicted to intoxicating liquors from the age of eighteen, and used to drink as much as twenty cups a day, at first of wine, then of " double- distilled liquor," of such potency that it made Sir Thomas Roe sneeze, to the delight of the whole Court. But as time went on, he says, he became sensible of the injury he was doing himself, and in seven years he reduced his allowance to six or seven cups ; restricted his potations to the evening ; and finally, he avers, he drank only to assist digestion,f though he admits that he indulged excessively in the use of opium. William Hawkins, (a cousin of the famous Sir Richard) who lived for two years in intimate attendance upon " the Mogul," confirms, in the main, these alcoholic statistics, but makes it clear that even the five or six cups of the Emperor's reduced allowance overcame him to such a degree that " being in the height of his drink," he fell into heavy sleep, from which he was roused for supper by his attendants, who had to feed the incapable monarch, J " This done," adds Sir Thomas Roe, " he turned to sleep ; the candles were popped out : and I groped my way out in the dark."§ The subject possesses a numismatic interest, inasmuch as Jahangir, with the imabashed frankness for which he is noted, had himself portrayed upon some of his coins in the attitude of holding a drinking-cup in his hand.|| * There are two distinct versions of the Tuzak-i JahdngM (also called the Wdki'dt-i JahdngM), or Memoirs of Jahangir. One was translated by Major David Price (Or. Transl. Fund, 1829); the other by Atkinson [Asiat. Misc. ii. 77). The latter is the better version, and was continued by Muhammad Hadf.

NUR-JAHAN. xix He was, no doubt, influenced towards a healthier mode of life by his wife, the celebrated Niir-Mahall {" Light of the Palace"), afterwards called Nur-Jahdn ("Light of the World"). This lady, whose maiden name was Muhr-an-Nisa, or " Seal of Womankind," had attracted the admiration of Jahangir when he was crown-prince ; but Akbar married her to a young Turkoman and settled them in Bengal. After Jahangir's accession the husband was killed in a quarrel with the governor of the province, and the wife was placed under the care of one of Akbar's widows, with whom she remained during four years, and then married Jahangir (1610). There is nothing to justify a suspicion of the Emperor's connivance in the husband's death; nor do Indian historians corroborate the invidious criticisms of "Normal" by European travellers : on the contrary, they portray Nur-Mahall as a pattern of all the virtues, and worthy to wield the supreme influence which she obtained over the Emperor. " By degrees," says Muhammad Hadi, the continuer of Jahangir's Memoirs, " she became, except in name, undisputed sovereign of the empire, and the king him- self became a tool in her hands. He used to say that Nur- Jahan Begam has been selected, and is wise enough, to conduct the matters of state, and that he wanted only a bottle of wine and piece of meat to keep himself merry. Nur- Jahan won golden opinions from all people. She was liberal and just to all who begged her support. She was an asylum for all sufferers, and helpless girls were married at the expense of her private purse. She must have portioned about five hundred girls in her life- time, and thousands were grateful for her generosity."* Her beauty and wisdom were universally extolled, and her devotion to her royal husband was attested by the * ED. vi. 398-9. XX JAHANOIB. white robes she wore in her long retirement during her eighteen years of widowhood till her death in 1645. Jahangir's queen, like his bottle, claims a place in numis- matics, for the historian records that " coins were struck in her name, and the royal seal on firmans bore her signature." That his statement as to coins is correct, the Catalogue will prove,"^ though Tavernier's story of her having designed and issued the famous zodiacal mohrs is certainly erroneous. f Sir Thomas Roe gives a detailed picture of the Court and life of Jahaugir, in which the daily levees of the Emperor formed a feature corresponding to our Court Circular. '' The Mogul every morning shows himself to the common people at a window that looks into the plain before his gate. At noon he is there again to see elephants and wild beasts fight, the men of rank being under him within a rail. Hence he retires to sleep among his women. After noon he comes to the Durbar. After supper, at eight of the clock, he comes down to the Guzalcan, a fair court . . . where none are admitted but of the first quality, and few of them without leave. Here he discourses of indifferent things very afi'ably. No business of state is done anywhere but at one of these two last places, where it is publicly canvassed, and so registered ; which register might be seen for two shillings, and the common people know as much as the council. . . . This method is never altered unless sickness or drink obstruct it ; and this must be known, for if he be unseen without a reason assigned, the people would mutiny; and for two days no excuse will serve, but the doors must be opened, and some admitted to see him to satisfy others. On Tuesday he sits in judgment, and hears the meanest person's complaints, examines both parties, and often sees execution done by his elephants."J * See Coins, Nos. 513-526. f See below, p. Ixxxi.

The Deccan provinces acquired more independence, however, and the Marathas began to be heard of for the first time. Bengal and Udaipur were, as usual, the scenes of in- surrection, and Kandahar passed into the possession of the Persian Shah in 1622, and remained lost to the Moghuls till 1637. The government of the country was carried on, at least nominally, on Akbar's lines, and no innovations, political or religious, were hazarded. Toleration was the order of the day, as in Akbar's time. Father Francisco Corsi was a jpersona grata at Court, and Jahaugir appeared to favour Christianity, and had two of his nephews baptized : but the motive of this was said to be either to bar the possible succession of the two princes to the throne, or to provide a means of importing Portuguese wives into the family. When the Jesuits declined to sanction such alliances, the Christianated youths recanted without hesitation, ^ It is true the Hijrah reckoning was revived in place of the new Ilahi era, but the years of the reign still continued to be calculated on the solar principle, and the Persiaii names of the solar months were retained. The general tranquillity was due partly to the prestige of Akbar's example, and partly to the ability of Jahangir's queen and ministers, especially Mahabat Khan, an Afghan of Kabul, Asaf Khan, Nur-Jahan's brother, and the Emperor's able son, Khurram, afterwards Shah-Jahan, who combined valuable services as a general with frequent rebellion as heir-apparent.

Asaf then defeated, bliaded, and eventually executed Shahriyar — who was known by the nickname of iV^rt-s/aic?a?ii ("Do-nothing"); the "Winter King," Dawar Bakhsh, vanished — probably to Persia — after his three months'" pretence of royalty ; and on 25th January, 1628 (18 Jumada I., 1037),t Shah-Jahan ascended at Agrah the throne which he was to occupy for thirty years. Shah-Jahan Shihab-ad-din (" Lord of the World, Flame of the Faith ") was born in 1592 (1000 A.H.), and was thirty-six when he came to the throne. J His mother was a Hindu, the daughter of the Rana of Marwar, and his paternal grandmother was also a Rajput, so that he was more Indian than Moghul. Nevertheless, by the influence of his Muhammadan wife, he acquired a certain tinge of intolerance entirely foreign to his indolent easy-going father and broad-minded grandfather. His bigotry was scarcely skin-deep, however ; for he permitted Jesuit missions in his capital and at his eldest son^s court, and placed Hindus in command of his armies. His wars were chiefly in the Deccan, where Bijapur and Golkondah were reduced to temporary submission and paid tribute, * Arjtnand Banu, "Noble Princess," the daughter of Asaf, and favourite wife of Shah-Jahan, and mother of his eight sons and six daughters, died in 1631 : her monument is the celebrated Taj-Mahall at Agrah. t ED. vii. 6.

Kandahar, however, returned for a while to its allegiance in 1637, though recaptured by the Persians in 1648. Many of these campaigns were conducted by Shah-Jahan's son, Aurang- zib, who proved himself a good soldier and able general, and, by winning the respect and devotion of his troops, prepared himself for an ambitious career. Shah-Jahan's reign is chiefly notable for the general tranquillity of the undiminished empire under the stable government of men like Asaf Khan, Sa'd-allah 'Allami, and 'All Mardan. Tavernier eulogizes the paternal government of the Emperor, " like a father over his family," and testifies to the security of the roads, and the just administration of the law. A Hindu writer extols the equity of his rule, his wise treatment of his tenants and management of his estates, the probity of his courts of law, his personal supervision of the revenue accounts, and the general prosperity of the empire during his reign.* Shah-Jahan was a great builder, as his works at Agrah and New Dehli, and his great canal, attest to this day. A single item in his budget is two and a half crores (nearly 3,000,000?) for public edifices. His court at Lahore, or in summer in Kashmir, or at his magnificent palace-suburb of New Dehli, called Shahjahanabad (which was completed in a.h. 1058, after building ten years), was splendid and refined, according to the accounts of European visitors. The Augustinian friar, Manrique, who came to inspect the Jesuit missions at Agrah, found the prime minister, Asaf Khan, at Lahore in a splendid palace decorated with paintings, some of which were of scenes in Christian hagiology * Rdi Bhara Mai, ED. vii. 171. DABA, MURAD, SHUJA'. xxv He dined witli the minister and the Emperor himself, and observed that unveiled ladies were at the table.* The taxation must have been heavy to meet the outlay of this sumptuous court, and we read of no fewer than eighty varieties of imposts. The revenue is said to have risen during the reign from the value of about 17,000,000Z. to 20,000,OOOZ. We possess ample Euro- pean evidence for the history and life of the period in the travels of Mandelslo, Bernier, Tavernier, and others, whilst a little later the Italian physician, Manouchi or Manucci, wrote his observations made during a long residence at the Moghul court.f Great variety of re- ligious opinion prevailed among the imperial family. Dara Shikoh, the eldest son, was a freethinker, with a leaning to Christianity, encouraged by three Jesuit priests in his suite. Two of the Emperor's daughters were Christians, and Aurangzib was a bigoted Muslim. Murad Bakhsh and Shuja' were cai-eless and self-indulgent. The rivalry of the brothers broke out into open conflict in 1657 (1067), when Shah-Jahan, who was residing atDehli, was attacked by strangury. J Dara immediately took upon himself the office of Regent, and intercepted all communications with his brothers in the outlying provinces. When the news of the Emperor's illness at length became known, general confusion ensued, and * Itinerario of F. Sebastian Manrique, Eeligioso Eremita de S.

Prince Murdd BahJish {" Desire-attained ") declared himself King in Gujarat, and struck coins in bis own name.* Shuja' did tbe like in Bengal, and advanced upon Agrab.f Aurangzib was watching events from bis camp in tbe Deccan. Dara and bis invalid father moved from Debli to Agrali to meet these dangers ; an army under Jai Singh, tbe Raja of Ambar, defeated Shuja', who, after some further resistance, fled to Burmah and dis- appeared (1660); and another army under another Hindu, Maharaja Jas want Singh, was sent against Murad, who was joined early in 1658 by his brother Aurangzib, for his own ends, but nominally with the intention of supporting Murad's claim to the throne. A decisive battle was fought atDharmatpur,nearUjjain,in April, and the two brothers routed the imperial forces. A second victory near Agrab and the flight of Dara opened the way to the royal city. Shah- Jahan, though somewhat recovered from his illness, was made a prisoner, June, 1658 (1068), and remained in captivity at Agrah till his death eight years later, in 1666 (Rajab, 1076). Murad Bakhsh was rudely undeceived by his astute brother, and sent to a dungeon at Dehli, where he was eventually murdered (1662). Dara was caught later, paraded in ignominy through the streets of Shahjahanabad, and executed in his prison (1659). J Aurangzib's road to the throne was now clear. He pretended at first to be acting as his father's deputy ; but the farce could not long be kept up, and in May 1659 (1069) he was proclaimed Emperor with the style of Muhayyi-ad-din Aurangzib 'ALAMGfR ("Preserver of the Faith, Throne-adorner, World-grasper "). Born * See Coins, Nos. 692-700. f See Coins, Noa. 690, 691. J Khafi Khan, ED. vii. 221-46, 266, 275. A URANOZIB. xxvii in A.H. 1028, he was forty years of age at his accession. His mother's strict Muslim teaching, dei'ived from her aunt Nur-Jahan, bore fruit in the son. Aurangzib was a fanatical Muslim, and a man of strongly marked character, with all the courage of his opinions, and one whose prejudices make themselves felt. Jahangir and Shah-Jahan had not been at the pains to bring any original ideas to bear upon their government. They had no gift of initiative, but were content to take Akbar's empire as they found it, and let things go on as usual. Provided that Jahangir had his bottle and Shah-Jahan his stately Peacock Throne and all that it implied, they were content to let well alone. But for the soundness of Akbar's polity, and the wisdom of a series of able ministers, the empire might hardly have survived two such easy-going monarchs. In Aurangzib the people soon found that they had to deal with a very different sort of ruler. Not only was he a man with an idea, but he possessed the business capacity and attention to details which enabled him to carry his idea into practice. To him the Moghul empire was not so much a possession to be skilfully managed with the wisdom of this world, as a trust from God to be watched over, as a province of Islam. His wars in the Deccan, which occupied much of his energy throughout his long reign, were not so much prompted by ambition or the spirit of aggrandisement, as inspired by the zeal of a propagandist eager to bring pagan provinces within the pale of a Muhammadan empire. In every department of government the puritanical and bigoted Musalman revealed himself. He began by abolishing the heretical solar year and Persian months of Akbar, and restoring not only the Hijrah reckoning (which Jahangir had reinstated), but the lunar system for the xxviii A URANQZIB. regnal years and the Arab names of the months* The significant New Year's festival, or Nauroz, celebrated at the vernal equinox, was strictly prohibited. The worldly luxury of Shah-Jahan's court was exchanged for an austerity worthy of a Wahhabi tent, and the Emperor him- self not only practised extreme asceticism, but followed the Prophet's precept in plying a trade for his own support. He embroidered skull-caps, and, like a literary bootmaker of our own day, he doubtless achieved a succes d'estime. He disliked the ostentation of the daily levees, when crowds came to stare at the Emperor as he sat in his belvedere of state ; and in abolishing the custom, which was as reassuring as a Court Circular, he materially diminished his personal influence over the people. He stirred up religious jealousies, by taxing Muslim traders less than Hindus, and exasperated the latter, who formed the large majority of his subjects, by demolishing hundreds of their temples and throwing down their idols. He infuriated the Rajputs by attempt- ing to circumcise the Raja of Marwar's sons and make Muslims of them. He crowned his oppression of the Hindus by reimposing the poll-tax, a duty on heresy, which had never been levied since Akbar abolished it. For such measures as these he was finally mobbed in the streets, but the stern old bigot trampled down the crowds by a charge of his war-elephants. Such a policy in the land of the Hindus was madness, and led surely to the loosing of those ties which Akbar had striven to knit. Nor could it be consistently carried out, as Aurangzib con- fessed by his own acts. He had himself married two Hindu wives, and he wedded his son Mu'azzam (after- wards the Emperor Bahadur) to a Hindu princess, as his forefathers had done before him, and thereby promoted * Khafi Khan, ED. vii. 211. AURANGZIB. xxix a mixture of blood which had conduced in a high degree to the improvement of their race ; he employed HiuduSj like Jaswant Singh and Jai Singh and others, in positions of high trust, and graciously adopted a condescending attitude towards the English of Bombay and Calcutta. By his strenuous advocacy of Muhammadanism he alienated the Hindus and paved the way for later dis- affection. By his continual aggression and interference in the Deccan he brought the Moghul empire into con- tact with forces which it could neither assimilate nor subdue, and thus really weakened while he seemed to extend his realm. He stirred up the Marathas, whom he never overcame, but left as a disastrous heritage to his successors. By his ineradicable habit of mis- trust and suspicion he disheartened his ministers, and alienated his sons, one at least of whom, Mu'azzam, was inclined to be dutiful to the point of excess. Of his five sons, the eldest, Muhammad (sometimes called Mahmud) threw in his lot with Shuja', and died in prison (1677). The second, of a Hindu mother, was Mu'azzam, who succeeded him : he, too, was imprisoned for some time by his father on groundless suspicion. The third and fourth, A'zam and Akbar, were children of a Persian lady. Once at least A'zam was on the verge of rebellion, and Ahbar in 1682 openly espoused the cause of the insurgent Rajputs, assumed the attributes of sovereignty, and was driven into exile and died in Persia about 1706. The youngest, Kam Bakhsh, whose mother was a Hindu, became insubordinate in the Deccan and was put under arrest, only to fall later on in a rebel- lion against his brother. In the midst of such troubles, but brave, resolute, and resourceful to the last, Aurangzib 'Alamgir died, March 1707 (28 Zii-1-ka'dah 1118),* at the age of * Khafi Kban, ED. vii, 386. XXX AURANQZIB. almost ninety. " The instant which has been passed in power," he wrote, " has left only sorrow behind it, I have not been the guardian and protector of the empire/' With all his marvellous vitality and power of work, he had failed to achieve success, and had placed his empire on the verge of a slope down which it slid irresistibly to dissolution. His narrow and suspicious nature could not inspire enthusiasm or devotion. " The period/' Mr. Keene says,* ^' is dull and depressing; barren of great ideas, great transactions, and great men. With an abundance of energy and many talents and even virtues, the Emperor was one of those singular human beings who combine a hot head with a cold heart, and, having the courage and ambition to achieve power, lack the unscrupulousness by which alone — iu such conditions as his — power can be permanently supported and exercised. To this day his name retains its hold in the memory of Indian Muslims as that of the greatest of their rulers ; and writers nearer the time can hardly find words to express their admiration of him who unquestionably prepared the ruin of his dynasty. His misfortunes were those of a bold, nai'row-minded, suspicious, and centralising egotist. As his father said of him, in terms that he himself records, ' Aurangzib excelled both in action and in counsel and was well fitted to undertake the burden of affairs ; but he was full of subtle sus- picion, and never likely to find any one whom he could trust.' " Yet when this last of the truly Great Moghuls died in 1707 there was little to indicate that the wide empire which he had ruled for half a century was destined to crumble in hardly more than the same period before the inroads of savage mountaineers and the steady encroach- * Op. cit. 220.

His money bears witness to the extent of his dominions. We find his name on coins issued at nearly forty different mints :* Kabul and Kashmir ; Lahore and Multan in the Panjab ; Bhakkar on the Indus ; Tattah further south in Sind ; Junagarh in Kathiawar ; Ahmadabad, Surat^ and Cambay in Gujarat ; Ajmir in Rajputana ; Shahjahanabad, Sirhind, and Baraili in the suhah or province of Dehli ; Akbarabad (Agrah), Narnol, Etawah, in the province of Biana; Lucknow in Oudh ; Zafarabad in the Allahabad suhah; Akbarnagar and Patnah in Bihar ; Makhsusabad {i.e. Murshidabad), Jahangirnagar (Dhakka), and Islam- abad (Chittagong), in Bengal, South of the Vindhya mountains, the testimony of the currency to the Emperor's sway is equally positive. We have coins bearing his name from the mints of Burhanpur in Khandesh, from Ahmadnagar and Aurangabad in Berar; further south, from Sholapur, Golkondah, Bijapur, and Haidarabad ; and even from Masulipatan and Chinapatan (Madras), far down on the Coromandel coast. All India, save the very apex of the Deccan triangle, owned the authority of Aurangzib. In Akbar's reign, India had been originally divided into twelve suhahs or provinces : Agrah, Allahabad, Oudh, Bihar, Bengal, Dehli, Lahore, Multan, Ajmir, Malwah, Gujarat, Kabul (with Kashmir) ; to which were added at a later date Khandesh, Berar, and Ahmadnagar. In Aurangzib's time there were twenty provinces: Gondwana, Aurangabad, Bijapur, Haidarabad, and Bidar were added in the Deccan. The mode of government in these provinces has been ably described by Bernier in a * In the British Museum and in the list published by Mr. C. J. Eodgers in the Proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal for 1883. xxxii A'ZAM. letter to the French minister Colbert.* The system of military feofs continued much as in Akbar's time, and many of these territorial lords were Hindus ; they re- ceived high salaries, sometimes paid in land, in return for which they maintained a body of retainers, well armed and mounted for the service of the Emperor. The provinces, districts, and cities had their governors, and the administration by all accounts appears to have been fairly good for an oriental system : Manouchi in- deed thought it " little inferior to that of other nations,^' though murder and robbery were undoubtedly far from infrequent crimes. The history of the Moghul empire after the death of Aurangzlb is a chronicle of weakness in the sovereigns and disintegration in the realm. Seventeen princes exercised the royal prerogative of coinage between 1707 and 1857 (some of whom, however, were usurpers or unsuccessful claimants for the throne), and not one of these displayed the capacity of a ruler. Aurangzib's eldest surviving son, Mu'azzam (''Very Mighty"), who had been given the title of Shah-'Alam or " Lord of the World," was governor of Kabul at the time of his father's death, and in his absence, and in default of evidence of the late Emperoi''s having named a successoi', the next brother, Aham (" Mightiest ") Shah, assumed the func- tions of royalty and struck coins, 1707 (1118) ,t supported by Asad Khan and his son Zu-l-Fikar, who led what may be called the Persian faction, as opposed to that of the Afghans and Turks, in the internal politics of Hindustan. Meanwhile Mu'azzam, accompanied by his sons, came down from Kabul, and, joined by the able governor of the Panjab, Mun'im Khan, occupied Dehli and Agrah. * Bernier's Travels (Coiistahlc's Oriental Misc. i.), 200 ff. t See Coins, Nos. 847-851. BAHADUR. xsxiii Then, with the magnanimity which was his best characteristic, the gentle prince offered to share the empire with his brother. A^zam would not listen to terms, however, and the brothers fought on the plains near Agrah, where A'zam was slain and his army defeated, June, 1707 (18 Rabf I. 1119).* Asad and Zu-1-Fikar were treated with the new emperor's habitual clemency, and the former was reinstated as prime minister. Mu'azzam then ascended the throne under the title of Shah-'Alam Bahadur (" Valiant ") Shah. He was then a man of sixty -four ; naturally of a conciliatory and merciful disposition, the blood he drew from his Hindii mother made him benignant to his Indian subjects, and should have recommended him to his kinsmen, the refrac- tory Rajputs. His philosophical studies indeed laid him open to the charge of being too much of a Hindu for the approbation of honest Muslims. Nevertheless, the seeds of disaffection sown by the exclusive policy of Aurangzib bore fruit, and in spite of the new Emperoi-^s concessions, and especially his prudent consent to rescind the hated faith-tax on non -Muslims, the Rajputs continued to nurse their awakened suspicions. Another race, the Jats, a tribe of brigands, nominally Muslims, who had their centre about Bhurtpur, also became troublesome at this time. A new and dangerous power, that of the Sikhs, sprang up in the Panjab, sacked Sirhind and Saharanpur, and in spite of repulses succeeded in harrying the country up to the gates of Lahore. Finally, the Marathas were waxing stronger and more outrageous every year. The Deccan was the weakest point in the empire fi*om the beginning of the reign. Hardly had Bahadur appointed his youngest brother, Kdm Bakhsh (" Wish-fulfiller "), viceroy of Bijapur and Haidarabad, when that infatuated » For this period see Khafi Khan, ED. vii. 387-533. e xxxiv BAHADUB, J AH AND All. prince rebelled and committed such atrocities that the Emperor was compelled to attack him. Zu.-1-Fikar engaged and defeated the rebel king (who was strik- ing coins in full assumption of sovereignty)* near Haidarabad, and Kam Bakhsh died of his wounds (1708, A.H. 1120). In the midst of tbis confusion, and surrounded by- portents of coming disruption, Bahadur died, 1712 (1124). He left four sons, who immediately entered with the zest of their race upon the struggle for the crown. The eldest, 'Azim-ash-Shdn (" Strong of heart "), first assumed the sceptre, but Zii-l-Fikar, the prime minister, opposed and routed him, and the prince was drowned in his flight. The successful general next defeated and slew two other brothers, Khujistah Akhtar Jahan-Shah and Rafi'-ash- Shan, and placed the surviving of the four sons of Bahadur on the throne with the title of Jahandar ("World-owner"). The new Emperor was an irre- deemable poltroon and an abandoned debauchee. Ho divided his time between a dancing-girl and low taverns, whence he was brought home in a cart, and on one occasion by inadvertence left there outside his own palace to cool till the morning. " Night and day," says Khafi, " were devoted to the lusts of this vile world. It was a fine time for dancers and singers and all the tribe of actors. There seemed to be a likelihood that the Kazis would turn tosspots and the Muftis become tipplers."t Such profligacy speedily aroused the con- tempt of his subjects, and two ambitious brothers, Abdallah and Husaiu, the chiefs of the Sayyids of Barha, who held the posts of governors of the provinces of Allahabad and Bihar, and belonged to the Persian sect of the Shi'ah, selected a new candidate for the Peacock Throne. * See Coins, Nos. 852, 853. f Khafi Khan, ED. vii. 432-3. FABBUKH-SIYAR. xxxv This was Farrukh-siyar {" Happy-natured "), son of the late 'Azim-ash-Shan, and formerly governor of Bengal under Bahadur.* The conspirators were successful ; the imperial troops were defeated ; the slaughtered body of Jahandar was placed on an elephant, and Zu-1-Fikar's corpse tied to its tail in a mock funeral procession (Januai'y, 1713, A.H. 1124). Farrukh-siyar was almost as effeminate as his predecessor, but his ministers and generals were men of pith. They were able to make head against the Eajputs, who gave a daughter of the Raja of Jodhpur in marriage to the Emperor, whilst the Sikhs were seriously discomfited and their Guru or prophet was put to death with horrible barbarity. An English embassy from Calcutta was in 1715 received with courtesy at Dehli, and, after considerable delay, obtained certain concessions which, however, they owed mainly to the diplomatic skill evinced by their surgeon Hamilton in operating upon a tumour which hindered the consumma- tion of the Emperor^s marriage with the Rajput princess. An estrangement had by this time grown up between Farrukh-siyar and the two Sayyids, and Husain, who had been appointed Viceroy of the Deccan, having made a humiliating peace with the Marathas, marched upon Dehli, assisted by a contingent of these marauders, who for the first time enjoyed the delight of exercising their predatory propensities in the capital of the Moghul empire. No opposition was attempted ; Farrukh-siyar hid himself among his women, whence he was dragged forth, thrown into prison (February 1719, Rabi' II. * Khafi Khan states that, on hearing of the death of Bahadur, Farrukh-siyar struck coins in the name of 'Azim-ash-Shau, and, after the latter's death, in his own name. No coins, however, have hitherto been published with the name of 'Azim-ash-Shan ; but the mohr No. 890, struck at Murshidabad, with the regnal year 1, may have been issued prior to Jahandar 's death. Farrukh-siyar ignored Jahan- dar's eleven months* reign, and reckoned his own from his father's death. ED. vii. 439, 478, note. xxxvi BAFF-AD-DARAJAT, MUHAMMAD. 113]), and after some months executed. The same year witnessed the remarkable spectacle of four princes successively assuming the crown. Two of these were set up in rapid sequence by the Sayyid brothers : they were both sons of the late prince Rafi'-ash-Sban, the son of Bahadur, and were styled Rapi'-ad-darajat ("Summit of Degree"") and Rafi'-ad-daulah ("Summit of the State") Shah-Jahan II. The first died in four months, and the second followed him to the grave after holding the nominal sceptre from May to September (20 Rejeb to 11 Zu-1-KaMah, 1131). Mean- while, another claimant appeared in the person of Niku- siyar (" Excellent in disposition ") a son of Akbar, the rebel son of Aurangzib, but he was soon disposed of, though not before he had exercised the coveted privilege of issuing his own money.* The empire had fallen into confusion ; the contumacy of rajas was condoned with the governorship of provinces ; and most of the western part of Hindustan became almost independent in the hands of Hindus, while the Marathas did what they pleased in the Deccan. In the midst of this anarchy Mohammad Shah ascended the throne (Sept., 1719, 11 Zii-l-ka'dah, 113J).t He was a son of Khujistah Akhtar and grandson of Bahadur, and consequently first cousia to the three preceding puppet- kings. He appears to have been only sixteen years of age when he became Emperor, and at first he was forced to acquiesce in the tyranny of the Sayyid brothers; but the Turkish party, headed by Chin Kulich Khan, soon put an end to the domination of these Persian dic- tators. Their armies were defeated ; Sayyid Husain was treacherously murdered, while his brother 'Abdallah, after * See Coin Xo. 953, and Khafi Khan, ED. vii. 480-2. t Khafi Khan, ED. vii. 485. MUHAMMAD. xxxvii setting up Ihrdhim, a brother of Eafi'-ad-daulah, on the throne in 1720, which he occupied for only a month (9 Zu-1-Hijjah, 1132, to 12 Muharram, 1133), died in captivity in 1723. Chin Kulich Khan, henceforth to be known as Asaf Jah Nizam-al-Mulk, became viceroy of the Deccan, and prime minister, but soon departed south to administer the important province which is still ruled by one of his descendants. He was, perhaps, the only really great and powerful man of the reign. His government of the Deccan, though always hampered by the exactions of the Marathas, was generous and enlightened ; he was a patron of poor scholars, and an author himself; and he improved his dominions by building public works, bridges, canals, and mosques. He died in the plenitude of power in June, 1748, at the age of over a hundred years. The struggle for the throne once over, Muhammad Shah gave himself up to the self- indulgence which had become the birthright of Moghul Emperors, and left his kingdom to be overrun by the Marathas, and to be broken up into numerous petty prin- cipalities, more or less independent, from which most of the present native states of India trace their origin. The Emperor was aroused from his lethargy by an overwhelming catastrophe. Nadir Shah, the usurping sovereign of Persia, in response apparently to an invitation from the Persian party in Hindustan, suddenly seized Kandahar and Kabul in 1737, and, after laying waste the Panjab, entered Lahore. The Moghul army advanced to repel him, but was defeated after an obstinate battle near Karnol. Negotiations for peace were already in progress when Muhammad cut them short by surrendering himself in Nadir's camp. The two armies fraternized and entered Dehli together on 19 March, 1738 (Zu-1-Hijjah, 1151). * See Coins, Nos. 954-7; Khafi Khan, ED. vii. 509. xxxviii INVASION OF NABIR. SHAH. Here a passing brawl led to a tumult, and Nadir ordered the streets to be swept with grape-shot. An indiscrimi- nate massacre of the inhabitants ensued for nine hours, during which 120,000 people are said to have been slaughtered. In May the Persians marched out of Dehli,* taking with them a Moghul princess and a treaty by which they obtained all territories west of the Indus, and leaving the Moghul empire quaking and tottering after this unprecedented shock. Ten years later Ahmad Khan the Durrani, founder of the modern Afghan dynasty, attempted to emulate Nadir's example by invading the Panjab and occupying Lahore (1748). He was beaten oflF, for the time, by the Moghuls ; but such invasions are a true index to the decay of the empire. Muhammad Shah died of grief, feeble and passive to the end (April, 1748, 27 Rabi' II. 1161). He is the last of the Moghuls who enjoyed even the semblance of power, and has been called " the seal of the house of Babar,'' for " after his demise everything went to wreck."t His son and successor Ahmad Shah occupied the throne for fourteen years : but they were all " labour and sor- row." The history of the reign is made up of the continual jealousies and intrigues and open conflicts of the rival Persian and Turkish factions, who fought in the streets of Dehli ; the turbulence of the Jats and of the Rohilas, or Afghans of Rohilkhand, an added element of anarchy ; quarrels between Rajput rajas ; incursions of the Marathas, who, led by chiefs of the Holkar and * See Nadir's coins, struck at Shahjalianabad in 1152, Bhakar 115S, iind Peshawar, in the Catalogue of the Coins of the Shahs of Persia in the British Museum, by R.

"Gujarat was overrun by the Marathas; Malwah and Rajputana had ceased to pay tribute or to acknowledge an imperial viceroy, the former being annexed to the Deccan, the latter held in sovereignty by its own rajas. The Jats were independent in the country south of Agrah, and the Bangash Pathans of Farrukhfxbad were equally so in the central Diiab. Oudh and Allahabad were practically a kingdom in the hands of Safdar Jang [son of the Nizam] ; the eastern Subahs (Bihar, Bengal, and Orissa) were similarly subject to the dynasty of Ilah- wirdi; the Panjab was tributary to the Afghan state of Kandahar; the Marathas were supreme elsewhere, save where the Nizam kept them at arm's length."+ At Dehli itself the power was in the hands of Ghazi- ad-din, a nephew of Safdar Jang, whose youth (he was but sixteen when he was made Amir-al-Umara, or premier noble) was no measure of his audacity and ambition. Dissatisfied with the inefiiciency of Ahmad, he deposed and blinded him ; then, assuming the office of vazir, he set up a man of fifty-five, the exemplary son of the * Ample numismatic evidence exists of the presence of the Dnrranis in tte Indus provinces.

It was not easy, however, to make even a show of imperial government in those evil times of Moghul history ; and when Ahmad Durrani again came down from Kandabar and appeared at Dehli in 1757, Najib and Gbazi showed their discretion in making an ally of a foe who was less to be dreaded than the Marathas, inasmuch as he went off when he had got the plunder he came for, whereas the tribesmen of Holkar and Sindhia showed every disposition to stay. Having sucked Dehli dry and drained the surrounding country as far as possible, the Durrani departed to Afghanistan in November, 1757, taking with him a few Moghul princesses for his family, and leaving Najib as Amir-al-Umara to protect the Emperor against the encroachments of the ambitious and unscrupulous Ghazi. The latter accepted the challenge and made war upon Najib, and meanwhile had the harmless old Emperor brutally and treacherously murdered, November, 1759 (1173). 'Alamgir II. had sat on his tottering throne for five miserable years. The vazir Ghazi-ad-din then set up a new puppet, a grandson of Kam Bakhsh, under the name of Shdh- * Tarikh-i ^Alamgir Sdni, ED. viii. 141. SHAH-'ALAM. ili Jalidn II. (it should have been III., since Rafi'-ad-daulah was the second who used the title), and the administra- tion at Dehli was carried on in his name for a few months.* The rightful heir, however, was the son of the late Emperor, 'Ali Gaur, infelicitously styled ShAh- 'Alam ("liord of the Universe ''), and he was at once recognized as emperor by the country at large arid by its powerful neighbour, Ahmad the Durrani. This alarming protector was now again in Hindustan, and, after driving away Ghazi-ad-din and his mimic king, he inflicted a memorable and crushing defeat upon the Marathas in January, 1761, upon the historical field of Panipat : after which he returned to Afghanistan, leaving Najib and Shuja' to make the best of their new Emperor. When the news came of his father's murder, Shah- 'Alam was in Bihar, bent upon establishing his claim to the viceroyalty of the eastern Siibahs, where he thought he had a better chance of enjoying the pleasures of power than in the distracted capital of his ancestors. He soon found, however, that he was out in his reckon- ing. Since the battle of Plassey in 1757, Bengal (with Bihar and Orissa) had been under the authority of a Nawab, under British control. The new Emperor, how- ever, did not at once realize the full meaning of the situa- tion. He invaded Bengal, only to be twice repulsed by the Nawab and the English (1 7G0-1 ). Aided by Shuja -ad-dau- lah, he resumed the attack in 1 764, and was utterly routed 23rd October, by Munro at Baksar (Buxar) near the con- fluence of the Karamnasa and the Ganges. f Next day he came into the British camp, and from that date (if not earlier) the Moghul empire became practically a thing of the past.

In other words, the English annexed the three eastern provinces, and Shah-'xVlam, whilst nominally Emperor of India, became really a pensioner of the British Crown. He kept a sorry court for some years at Allahabad, with an English resident to look after him, and then in 1771 returned to Dehli, exchanging, as events proved, the protection of the British for the tyranny of the Marathas. He enjoyed, however, a brief interval of prosperity, almost of power, during the able administration of Mirza Najaf ; but the gleam of sunshine was followed by darkness. Shah-'Alam was barbarously blinded by Ghulam Kadir in 1788, and a new puppet, Biddr-Bakht {" Of wakeful fortune "), son of Ahmad, was set up.* Immediately afterwards the Marathas entered into possession, avenged the crime, and deposed the usurper, but kept the unfortunate Emperor completely under control. Thus he remained till Loi*d Lake's victory in 1803 freed him and Hindustan from the southern pestilence. From the Treaty of Allahabad in 1765 onwards the history of India has little to do with the Great Moghul : it is the history of the struggle of many adventurers of various nations for the fragments of a broken empire,t and the record of the final triumph of the English.

Here it is only necessary to add that Shah-'Alam died in 1806 (1221), and was succeeded in his position of imperial pensioner of the British Crown by his son, Muhammad Akbar II. ; who in turn was followed in 1837 (1253) by his son, Bahadur II., whose participation in the Indian Mutiny led to his banishment in 1857 to Rangoon, where this last of the Moghul Emperors died in 1862. The task of England has been to undo the disastrous work of Aurangzib. " It was by the alienation of the native races that the Moghul Empire perished : it is by the incorporation of those races into a loyal and united people that the British rule will endure.^' * But whilst endeavouring to restore Akbar's empire by Akbar's policy of wise conciliation, we have to remember that neither empire nor policy could have existed without the strong dominant ascendancy of Akbar himself; nor can the Empress of India's domination in her eastern Empire dispense with a strong and absolute British authority, supreme and paramount over all. * Sir William Wilson Hunter, The Ruin of Aurangseh, XlXth Century, May, 1887. ( sliv ) § 2. THE CABINET OF MOGHUL COINS. The series of coius of the Mogliul Emperors of Hindustan in the British Museum has long been celebrated^ and the important additions of the last ten years have placed it at the head of all similar collections. The nucleus of this unrivalled cabinet was the rich bequest of William Marsden in 1834. This was notably augmented by the -^•l purchase in 1847 and 1850 of coins collected by the doyen of Indian numismatists, Prinsep, and his worthy disciple, Edward Thomas, and by the acquisition in 1853 of the valuable Eden cabinet. Within the last decade the coins originally preserved at the India House and Office were transferred to the British Museum (1882) ; the fine collection of Mr. A. Grant was added in 1885 ; and the splendid Arabic and Persian cabinet of Gen. Sir Alexander Cunningham was purchased in 1888 ; while the Govern- ment of India, the Bengal Asiatic Society, the Bombay Branchof the Royal Asiatic Society, and the Archaeological Survey of the Pan jab, have largely contributed towards filling up the gaps in the National series. These are ;i; the chief constituents in the collection; but a number , of oSicei's, civilians, and travellers in India have con- tinually brought a few rare specimens to the Museum, »| and many names well known to others than numismatists may be recognised among these collectors ; such as , Professor H. H. Wilson, Col. Guthrie, Col. Tobin Bush, Major Hay, Sir Bartle Frere, Mr. James Gibbs, Mr. James Burgess, Mr. Da Cunha, &c. ; whilst among the early benefactors of the collection, though in small numbers, may be mentioned Miss Sarah Sophia Banks (1818), the Rev. Clayton Mordaunt Cracherode (1790), Mr. R. Payne Knight (1824), and his Majesty King FORMATION OF THE CABINET. xlv George III., who contributed four specimens. As a considerable interest attaches to many of the col- lectors whose cabinets have combined to form the series described in the present volume, it has been judged useful to affix their names to their coins, except in cases where there were but one or two specimens presented or purchased. Coins acquired in the ordinary market have as a rule no name attached to them in the Catalogue. The relative strength of the various component elements of the Moghul series may be summarized as follows. Excluding the East India Company's coinage, the series consists of about 1250 coins. Of these the following collections contributed nearly 1000 : — Marsden . , . . . .173 Cunningham . . . , . . 147 India Office 132 Alex. Grant 101 Prinsep . . . . ... .65 Eden 57 Thomas 58 Government of India . . . . . 34 Panjab Archaeological Survey . . 30 Bengal Asiatic Society . . . . 28 Hay, Payne Knight, Gibbs, Playfair, Theobald, and Bombay Asiatic Society (from 10 to 20 each) . . . ,97 Banks, Prof. Wilson, Bank of England Coll., Cracherode, Bush, Stubbs, Pearse, Frere, Teames, Cureton, Burnes, Stewart, De Bode, Guthrie, Da Cunha, & George III. (under 10 each) . . 74 About two-thirds of the Moghul coinage, as represented in the British Museum, falls under the third, fourth, fifth and sixth Emperors, Akbar, Jahaugir, Shah- Jahau, and xlvi THE CABINET OF COINS. Aurangzib, whose reigns cover rather more than half the interval between the accession of Babarin 1525 (a.h, 932) and the death of Shah-'Alam in 1806 (1221). The actual numbers of gold, silver, and copper coins of these four Emperors are as follows : — N- M M Total Akbar 75 168 39 282 Jahangir 83 161 1 2 45 Shah-Jahan 50 123 — 173 Aurangzib 24 125 — 149 Total 232 577 40 849 In this table, the very large proportion of gold to silver (more than one-half in the reign of Jahangir, and •4 on the whole number) and the extraordinary scarcity of copper will be observed. The latter subject will call for discussion later (§ 8). The coins of the two Emperors preceding Akbar, Babar and Humayuu, which are attributable to their Indian government, are very few, and partake of the character of the currency of Transoxiana, the province whence Babar advanced to rule in India. Some Transoxine issues of Babar are described in the Gatalogue of Oriental Coins, Vol. vii, p. 163, and Additions part ii, p. 163, and in the Catalogue of Persian Coins, pp. xxv and 210. The Kashmir issues of Humayuu and Akbar are noticed in iheCatalogue of Indian Coins, Muhammadan States, ip. 80. Of the seventeen Emperors and pretenders who struck coins between the death of Aurangzib and the accession of Shah-^Alam, only Muhammad Sl^h appears to have issued a large currency (N 20. ^ 63 = 83) ; Farrukh- siyar is represented by 47 coins ; and the others by numbers ranging from 1 to 29. Shah-'Alam's coinage, numerous as it is, as will be explained further on (§ 9), cannot be regarded as his personal coinage in the same sense as that of Akbar. ( xlvii ) § 3. MINT CITIES. The range of mints embraced in the rich series of coins from Akbar to Aurangzib furnishes a faithful chart of the growth and extent of the Moghul Empire.

In the reign of Aurangzib we find a large addition of Deccan mints, due to this Emperor's wars in the south. Under the pretender Kam Bakhsh, Haidarabad occurs for the first time ; Arkat and Guti appear under Farrukh-siyar, as well as the new fiscal capital of Bengal, Murshidabad, afterwards familiar on the coins of the East India Company. The first appearance of many of these mints possesses an historical importance. The occurrence of the mint Ahmadabad on a gold mohr of 980 evidently marks the conquest of Gujarat, of which this city was the capital, in 980 (1572). Still more notable is the mohr no. 63. It bears the uniqueformula Si^^ZsLcj^i^] ^j£. ^bt jk,©**,-* w^j-o " Struck at Muhammadabad commonly called Udaipur, conquered," with the date 984, which corresponds to the reduction of that frequently insurgent Eajput city by Akbar in 1577. The first rupee of Burhanpur (no 197), issued in the month Dai of 38 Ilahi (1593), records the invasion of the provinces of Khandesh and Berar in 1001. The mohr of Asir (no. 166), again, with the curious device of a falcon, and the Ilahi year 45, clearly commemo- rates Akbar's later conquest of the fortress of Asirgarh, the strong place of Khandesh, and the discovery of immense treasure there, in the summer of 1600. Akbar's new palace of Fathpur, or " Victory-town," which he founded at Sikri, 27 miles south-west of Agrah in 976-9 (1569-71), is represented in his coinage only from 986 to 989, and thenceforth disappears from the series. Mr. Eodgers, however, has described * a Zodiacal mohr (Capricornus) of Jahangir's, bearing this mint and the 14th year of his reign, and 1028 a.h. The mint Urdu, * Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, Ivii. 26. Hi MILLENNIUM COINS. or Urdu-Zafar-Karin ("Camp linked to Victory"), is supposed to indicate the striking of coins during Akbar's victorious progresses, in tlie north probably, on his way to his summer resort in the happy valley of Kashmir. It is possible, however, that the name Urdii-Zafar-Karin may possess some mystical import. All the coins bearing this mint, if such it be, present, in the place of the usual ciphers indicating the date, the single word t_ft)l, 1000. This is the only instance in the whole series (except j^l in recording the first regnal year) of the use of an Arabic numeral in the place of ciphers, and it has a certain significance in view of the following circumstances recorded by the historian Badaoni. As early as 990 Akbar had convinced himself that the Muhammadan religion was destined to last exactly 1000 years from the Hijrah and no more. It was believed that the second advent would be inaugurated by the coming of the Mahdi, and Akbar appears to have encouraged the expectation. He ordered the " Era of the Thousand " to be engraved on the coins, and commanded a Shiya'i divine to write a Tarikh-i Alfi or "History of the Millennium " (a.h. 1-1000), and confided the completion of it to Badiioui himself. The work appeared in the year 1000 a.h. (1592) ; and in the same year Akbar called-in all the old coins of his prede- cessors and melted them down.* There may be some con- nexion between this '* Era of a Thousand" and the year uJJl 1000 on the coins; and it may not be unreasonable to suggest that these millennium pieces with the word u_ft31 are the product of the melting down of older issues recorded to have taken place in the year 1000 of the Hijrah. If this be a correct surmise, the name Urdu-Zafar-Karin may bear some such significa- tion, in the mystical phraseology of the Shi^ah, as " Camp of the approaching triumph of the Faith." * Badaoni, ED. v. 534, 542. AKBAB'S MINTS. liii Abu-1-FazFs account of Akbar's mints in the Ain-i- Akbari is very imperfect. He states that at the be- ginning of the reign gold was struck in many parts of the empire ; but at the time he wrote^ only at four places, the seat of government [Fathpur], Bengal [i.e. Dhakka], Ahmadabad, and Kabul. Silver was also coined there, and likewise at ten other towns : — Ilahabas, Agrah, Ujjain, Surat, Dehli, Patnah, Kashmir, Lahore, Multan,and Tan- dah. Copper, however, he says, proceeded from twenty mints : — Ajmir, Oudh, Atak, Alwar, Badaon, Benares, Bhakar, Bahrah, Patnah, Jaunpur, Jalandar, Hardwar, Hisar Flrozah, Kalpi, Gwalior, Gorakhpur, Kalanwar, Lucknow, Mandu, Nagdr, Sirhind, Si^lkot, Sironj, Saha- ranptir, Sarangpur^ Sambal, Kanauj, Rantambhor.* A comparison with the coins will at once show the inaccuracy of these statements. Few of Akbar's mints present difficulties in identi- fication. The mohr no. 31 is ascribed to Sarangpur, but it must be admitted that there is no trace of the ,*) in the mint, which reads merely j^J.ijlw It may be urged, however, that as this city, the capital of Malwah_, was an- nexed by Akbar in 969, according to the Tahakdt-i AJchari, the appearance of a solitary gold piece with its name in 972 (the date of this coin) was in character with Akbar^s proceedings at Udaipur and Asirgarh. All three are in the nature of commemorative medals, and we do not meet with these mints again in the series. The name j>J-«j on no. 177 has been read j^I^j Peshawar, but with little confidence; Mr. Rodgers,t however, suggests j^^l^ Sitapur, and the diacritical points favour his interpretation. Mr. Rodgers and Mr. Oliver! have read the mint joi^^i as jjl£3j> , Doganw : * See § 8 below. f Journ. As. Soc. Bengal, lii. 97. + Ibid. Iv. liv JABANGIB'S MINTS. but, wliile it is most probably the same name, there can be no question that the last letter on the copper coins nos. 263, 271, is>6 not y. Several places called Deogaon are mentioned in Abu-1-Fazl's list of Todar Mai's rent- roll. Malptir in Gujarat, and Bairatah, which Gen, Sir Alex. Cunningham supposes to be Vairata, in Raj- putana, noted for copper mines, are among the rarer mints which occur only among Akbar's copper currency. The mint Tattah has frequently been confused with Patnah : the distinction is explained in a footnote to p. 37. Among Jahangir's mints we find evidence of this Emperor's well-known predilection for the cool valleys of Kashmir and Afghanistan as refuges from the summer heats of the Indian plains. Kashmir, Kandahar, and Kabul occur frequently upon his coins; and at first sight one is tempted to identify Jahangirnagar with Jahan- girpiir, a familiar hunting-ground of the Emperor on the way from Lahore to Kashmir, especially as it first occurs at a time when he was frequently in that neighbourhood : but a comparison of the style of the engraving on the coins of this mint with that of the contemporary coins of Patnah, another mint of the Eastern Subahs, leaves little doubt that Prof. Dowson * is right in identifying Jahan- girnagar with Dhakka (originally Bengalah).f Jahangir not only celebrated his own name in the christening of the city of Jahangirnagar : he also named Akbarnagar (Eajmahall) after his father. So Shah-Jahan called the new suburb he added to Dehli in 1648 (1058) Shah- jahanabad, and renamed Agrah Akbarabad. In later times we meet with other eponymous mints, as Muradabad (so named after Murad Bakhsh), Aurang- abad and 'Alamgirpur (after Aurangzib 'Alamgir), * ED. vii. 241. f Cunningham, Arch, Survey, xr. 127. EPONYMOUS MINTS. Iv A'zamnagar (after A'zam), Mu'azzamabad (after Mu'az- zam, Bahadur's original name), Farrukhabad (after Farrukli-siyar), and ^Azimabad (Patnah, after 'Azim- asli-Shan), In like manner Mursbidabad (formerly Makhsusabad) records the name of Mir Ja'far Khan, the Diwan or revenue officer and afterwards Nawab Nazim or military governor of Bengal (1704-1725), who received the title of Murshid Kuli Khan; while Najibabad was the capital of the famous Rohila chief Najib-ad-daulah, of the time of Shah-^Alam. In still more recent days we meet with such combinations as Abbott- abad. Some of these new names for old cities are difficult to identify : e.g. 'Alamgirpur and Zafarptir, in the time of Aurangzib; Mu'azzamabad in that of Rafi'-ad-daraiat, and Bahadurpatan in that of Shah-'Alam. If we are permitted to regard such terms as -pur, -nagar, -garh, -patan, and -abad, as interchangeable (which is doubt- ful) , 'Alamgirpur may stand for 'Alamgirnagar in Bengal, Zafarpur for Zafarabadj in the province of Allahabad (N.W.P.), or for Zafarnagar near Burhanpur, and Bahadurpatan for Bahadurgarh, which is frequently men- tioned in the wars of the time of Shah-'Alam, Mu'az- zamabad, however, cannot be explained by any such hypothesis ; and Nasratabad, in Aurangzib's reign, may represent any newly conquered city, or may be the modern Nasirabad. Dilshadabad, again, " City of heart's con- tent,'^ is a species of pet -name. Among Shah-Jahan's mints is one which, even when compared with several other specimens of the time of Aurangzib, is difficult to decipher, in consequence of the bad preservation of the marginal mscriptions. There can be no doubt, however, that it must be read "'j^'i- Junah, and sometimes more completely [»] j^ <^^»- Junah- garh, (compare Asir and Asirgarh) . The extremely rude fabric of all the examples of this mint would be explained Ivi ALLAHABAD. by the remote situation of Junagarli, a fortress in Katlii- awar, renowned for its formidable strength, but taken by Akbar after three months' siege in 999 (early in 1591) and annexed to the empire.* It is true that Junagarh is generally spelt with an alif {oj.^ ^>»-) " Old Fort"), but it may nevertheless have been originally derived from the name Junah, Ai^»., which belonged to Muhammad ibn Taghlak, and afterwards have been corrupted to suit the meaning of " Old Fort." Junagarh was an impor- tant stronghold, the chief place in the district of Surat in Kathiawar (not to be confounded with the greater Surat further to the south-east). Sir Thomas Roef refers to it as the capital of " Soret/' and Mandelslo men- tions it under the name of " Jangar " as the chief city of that district. It is still a separate native state and has had a Nawab of its own for the last century and a half. Akbar found here and at the greater Surat (which he took in 980) some guns and mortars abandoned by the Ottoman Sultan Sulaiman the Great, after his fruitless attack on Diu in 1538. In Shah-Jahan's reign may be noted an indication of the southward expansion of the empire in the occurrence of of the mint Daulatabad (the ancient Deogir) on coins of 1039 &c., the date of this Emperor's first campaign in the Deccan. From the reign of Shah-Jahan onwards a source of confusion is found in the similarity between the names Allahabad (properly llahabad, originally Ilahabas), and Akbarabad, (written on the coins it»t .jJI and ^bl .Ul) which differ merely in the absence or presence of the small » after the ) which stands for J in 3b I -^)l and ^ in >bl ^t. It is commonly stated that the name of this city, founded by Akbar in 1572, and called by him Ilahabas, * Tahakdt-i Akbari, ED. v. 461, i65. t Journal, Pinkerfcon, viii. 55. DECGAN MINTS. Ivii was changed to Ilahabad by Shah-Jalian. The latter form, however, as well as Ilahabas, occurs on coins of Akbar himself. The rival princes Shuja' and Murad Bakhsh divided the empire, before the triumph of Aurangzib : Shuja's advance from Bengal is marked by his issuing coins at Akbarabad (Agrah) ; while Murad struck at the old and future capitals of Gujarat, Ahmadabad and Surat, and also at Cambay. It should be noticed that in this, the earliest, occurrence of the mint Cambay, the name is spelt correctly w^jU-iy^ Khanbayat or Khanbait (pronounced Khambait). It is stated in the Tuzak-i Jahdngiri or '' Memoirs of Jahangir " that Khambait is derived from Khamb, a pillar; whence Khambawati and Khambait.* On later coins the name is spelt Ool*i^, without the h. Aurangzib's coinage exhibits several mints unused by bis predecessors, chiefly situated in the Deccan, where, as has been seen, he waged continual war. The chief mint is Aurangabad (also called on coins and in Khafi Khan^s history, Khujistah-bunyad, or " Auspicious Struc- ture,") named after himself, and henceforward the capital of the Moghul power in the Deccan, — a dignity previously enjoyed by Burhanpiir. Other Deccan mints now appearing for the first time are Golkondah,t Ahmad- nagar, Bijapiir, Chinapatan (the old name for Madras), and Masulipatan (Machhlipatan) . In Hindustan we find * ED. vi, 354. It fihonld be added that no coins are known corresponding to the "gold and silver tatikas" described in the Memoirs as having been struck at Cambay in a.h. 1027, regnal year 12, " ten and twenty times heavier than the current gold mohr and rupee," and with the remarkable legend (on the silver) "After the conquest of the Deccan he came from Mandii to Gujarat." Jahangir claims them as " an invention of my own," and calls them " Jahangiri tankas," adding that all previous tankas were of copper. t The coin No. 726 is erroneously printed Calcutta : it should of courEe be Golkondah. h Iviii LATE MINTS. as new mints Lucknow, Baraili, Zafarabad, and the un- identified names already referred to : — Zafarpur, ■'Alam- girpiir, and Nasratabad. Of the later Emperors and aspirants to the throne, A'zam and Kam Bakhsh struck coins only in the Dekhan, the latter adding Haidarabad to the list of Moghul mints; Bahadur struck at Sholapiir in the Deccan (ceded to Aurangzib in 1668 by 'All 'Adil Shah of Bijapur), and Ujjain in Malwah ; and re-named Patnah 'Azimabad, after his son 'Azim-ash-Shaa. In Farrukh-siyar's cur- rency Arkat, A'zamnagar, and Murshidabad appear for the first time ; and a diminutive gold coinage, resembling that of southern India, forms a new feature ; it issued from Imtiyazgarh {" Distinction-Fort," Aurangzib's new name for Adoni, which I at first read Iratiyaz Karrah), Guti, Gangpur (in Chutia Nagpur), and another mint which is illegible. A similar issue, also from Imtiyazgarh, occurs in the coinage of Muhammad Shah and of ' Alamgir II. Two new mints appear with the name of Rafi'-ad- darajat : Mu'azzamabad (unidentified) and Kura, which is probably not the Kura near Sironj, but the city spelt vari- ously Ij^ and «j3^, in the Duab, and generally written Korah in the maps. Muhammad Shah repeats the rare mints Kura and Imtiyazgarh, and adds Benares, Akbarnagar-Oudh, Farrukhabad, Siwai-Jaipur (founded in his day by Siwai-Jai-Singh), Islamabad (the new name given to Chatgaon, or Chittagong, on its con- quest in 1076), Shahabad (an ancient city in the province of Oudh, with the addition on the coin of the word «»75^), and Ajayur, j^j\ef\ thus pointed, possibly Ajayapur, the old name of Bakror.* Muradabad, though by no means a new creation, first appears in this series on a coin of Ahmad Shah; and Indrapur (the old name of Indore*) on the issues of 'Alamgir II. In Shah-'Alam's * Cunningham, Arch. Survey, i. 13. HONOBTFIG NAMES OF MINTS. Hx time the new mints of Bahadur-patan and Najibabad (already referred to), Srinagar and Dilshadabad, appear for the first time. Several of the principal mints are generally, but not invariably, provided with honorific prefixes. Thus Lahore is styled Bdr-as-Saltanah, " Seat of Empire ;" Dehli, Ddr-al-Ehildfah, " Seat of the Caliphate ; " Bijapur, Ddr-az-Zafar, "Seat of Victory;" Ajmir, Ddr-al-Khair, "Seat of Weal;" Kabul, Ddr-al-Mulk, "Seat of Eoyalty;" Agrah, Mustakarr-al-Khildfah "Eest- ing place of the Khalifate;" Multan, Ddr-al-Amdn, "Seat of Safety." A list of these is given in Index II a. Mr. Rodgers* mentions Bandar-al-Muhdrak, " the Blessed Port/' as a prefix of Surat (so termed because it was the Bab-al-hajj, or starting point of the Indian pilgrim- age to Mekka), and Baldat-al-Fdkhirah, "the Eesplen- dent Town/' as a prefix of Burhanpur : neither of these occurs in the British Museum collection. Abu-1-Fazl's Ain-i Akbari contains some sections on Akbar's mints and their management, and the simple processes of assaying and coining ; and the late Mr. Blochmann's translation reproduces some native drawings of the various operations in use in Akbar's time. The chief officer of the mint was the ddr6gah,'\ under whom were the sairafi or sarrdf (assayer), the foreman, clerk, bullion-buyer, treasurer, weigher, melter, and plate-maker or flan-cutter (zarrdb), and sihkachi or puncher. The best engraver of dies was 'Ali Ahmad, of Dehli. J * Proceedings As. Soc. Bengal, Jan. 1883. t Or 'darugha, in Mongol jj\3*^^^' ^^^utenant or governor.

Moor,* who wrote in 1794, the method of coining in Bombay was extremely primitive, and doubtless had remained unchanged for centuries : " the metal is bi'ought to the mint in bars the size of the little finger, where are a number of persons seated on the ground provided with scales and weights, a hammer, and an instrument between a chissel and a punch : before each man's birth is fixed a stone by way of anvil. The bars are cut into pieces, by guess, and if, on weighing, any deficiency is found, a little particle is punched into the intended rupee; if too heavy, a piece is cut ofP,and so on until the exact quantity remains. These pieces are then taken to a second person, whose whole apparatus consists of a hammer and a stone anvil, and he batters them into something of a round shape, about seven eighths of an inch diameter, and one eighth thick ; when they are ready for the impression. The die is composed of two pieces, one inserted firmly into the ground ; the other, about eight inches long, is held in the y j right hand of the operator, who, squatting on his heels . . . fills his left hand with the intended coins, which he with, inconceivable quickness slips upon the fixed die with his thumb and middle finger, with his fore finger as dexterously removing them when his assistant, a second man with a mall, has given it the impression, which he does as rapidly as he can raise and strike with the mall on the die held in the right hand of the coiner. . . . The rupee is then sent to the Treasury, ready for currency, as no milling or any fai'ther process is considered necessary.

The era exclusively employed by all the Moghul Emperors, with the exception of Akbar, is the Muhammadan Hijrah. Akbar also made use of this reckoning up to the 28th (solar) year of his reign, beginning 11 March, o.s., 1583, A.H, 991,* when he instituted his Ildhi or "divine" epoch, composed of solar years, and dating from the vernal equinox of the first year of his reign (1556). The British Museum possesses one rupee of the 28th year of this epoch ; and from this time to the end of the reign the Ilahi years were employed to the almost total exclusion f of the Muhammadan reckoning. Together with the use of the Ilahi epoch, the custom of recording the month of issue was introduced upon the currency. The months thus employed were those of the ancient Persian Kalendar, consisting of twelve solar months : Farwardin, Ardlbihist, Khurdad, Tir, Mardad, Shahriwar, Mihr, Aban, Azur, Dai, Bahman and Isfandarmiz. The following table of Akbar's Ilahi years, from the 28th, when the new reckoning was introduced, will be found useful. It is taken from Sir Henry Elliot's table in the History of India as told by its own Historians, vol. iv., p. 246. * Abu-l-Fazl, in the Am, places the date of inauguration of the Ilahi era at A.H. 992. The discrepancy between this statement and the positive evidence of the rupee no. 177, which bears the regnal year 28, beginning 28 Safar, or March 10, 991, may be reconciled by supposing the change of reckoning to have taken place near the end of the solar year, which would bring it into the new Hijrah year 992, and a.d. 158-i. t See, however, pp. 20, SO-l, and 47.

SOLAR YEARS. Ixiii "When Jahangir succeeded his father, he abolished the Ilahi era, and reverted to that of the Hijrah, even specifying" the word Hijri [^j-st^^ on some coins. But, whilst reverting to the lunar reckoning for the years counted from the Hijrah, or ordinary " date " of his coins, he still employed the solar year and Persian months in stating the year of his reign on the coinage, though without any pretence of establishing a new epoch, but simply as our own Acts of Parliament are dated by the Queen's regnal years. This singular juxtaposition of lunar and solar years on the currency has not, I believe, been noticed by numismatists ; but the use of the Persian names of months would by itself suggest the employment of a solar reckoning, and the statement of Khafi Khan the historian and the evidence of the coins themselves place the matter beyond a doubt. It will be found that as the lunar years are about ten days shorter than solar, and therefore advance more rapidly, so on the coins the Hijrah years overtake and finally overlap the regnal years. Thus the regnal year 22 appears on the coins in conjunction with the Hijrah years 1036 and 1037, i.e. it began in 1036 and ended in 1037 ; whereas, had the regnal reckoning been lunar, 1036-7 would have corresponded to parts of the regnal year 23 (beginning Ramazan 1036). Besides retaining Akbar's solar reckoning for regnal years, Jahangir preserved the special term Ildhi in connexion with the regnal year, using it in the same manner as julus—a, term which he also occasionally employed. Thus he inscribed his coins with ^)l j^ olc i 6j£s\ s^j^a, and also with ^^kof. 1 <*.*«» . The custom of recording the julus or regnal year was preserved by all succeeding Emperors and pretenders ; but the solar years and Persian months were banished from the coinage and the exchequer by Aurangzib, who was, as has been seen. IxiT SOLAR REGNAL YEARS. a zealous Muhammadan, and thenceforward the lunar reckoning was strictly adhered to, together with the Arabian months, though these are never named on the coins. It should be observed that discrepancies between the Hijrah year and the regnal year are not infrequent. Sometimes this is due to the employment of an old die ; sometimes it is caused by the carelessness of the mint- masters. The use of the solar reckoning for the regnal years, and the lunar for the Hijrah date, during Ja- hangir's and Shah-Jahan's reigns, when the two were constantly shifting their relative positions, may reason- ably have caused some confusion. The Hijrah and regnal dates are always expressed in figures, not words ; except the first year of the reign, which is usually written jk».l, and the year 1000, U>i\ ;* and excepting also the Hijrah years on Akbar's copper coins, which are expressed in Persian numerals (s^iAj ^liiAj ,y^^, &c.). * On a probable mybtical interpretation of this numeral, in con- nexion with the anticipated end of the world at the thousandth year of the Hijrah, see above, lii. ( l^v ) § 5. INSGEIPTIONS, TITLES, WEIGHT, &c. The earliest coins of tlie Moghul Emperoi's naturally followed the design and style, and adopted the broad thin shape, of the coins of the Transoxine Timuris from whom Babar sprang. He and his son Humaynn placed the Kalimah, or profession of faith in God and his Prophet in the obverse area, and surrounded it with a marginal inscription containing the names and virtues of the first Four Khalifs. On the reverse were arranored, partly in the margin, partly in the area, the name, sur- name (lakah), and titles of the Emperor, which began with the usual Transoxine style of o'^^^-^v*^'^' ijliaX~JI jaj.^^\, 'Hhe mightiest Sultan, the honourable Khakan," Zahir-ad-din Muhammad Babar, or Abu-1-Muzaffar Muhammad Humayun, and ended with the most general of all Moghul titles, Padishah Ghdzi, " Victorious King," together with the benedictory formula, dSX< jJ^ aJUI jJLa. AjUaJLw^, or part of it. Humayun on one coin introduced the innovation of ^JAs%Ji\ j^^, ''Lord of Sultans," into his title; and on another he used, once only, the Koranic verse wjI~.*. j.*ij d-ij ^J^ ali\ JJjj, " God rewards whom He wills without reckoning " (Kor. ii. 208). Akbar for a short time followed the example of his predecessors and adopted the Transoxine style of coin, and the same elaborate titles ; but already, by the in- fluence of Todar Mai, Arabic was being superseded by Persian in the imperial bureaux and among the en- gravers of seals and coins 3* and by this time Akbar had * Some of the early Moghul coins evince an imperfect acquaintance with Arabic : as in the frequent confusion oi y\, ^\, and M, and the slip J^ U Us, for J^ ji] t^Ls: ; which, however, should be JJ^.

Ixvi FORMULAS OF EELIQION. realized the wisdom of conforming to the traditional preference of his Indian subjects for thick dumpy coins, instead of the broad thin pieces of the Khalifs and their successors. Accordingly, we see him abandoning the Transoxine forms; first the Kliakdn disappeared, then the Sultan, and finally there remained only the title Padishah Ghdzi, which continued in vogue to the end of the Moghul empire. The Kalimah and Khalifs' names, however, still retained their place in the obverse area and margin, and the benediction, >y4*c aJJI ,^«s>; or J> ^^^ aJDI, was sometimes appended. At the same time he adopted the thicker form which continued henceforward to be characteristic of the Moghul currency. The coins of Akbar and of his successors, Jahangir and Shah- Jahan, are splendid specimens of the moneyer's art. They may be compared advantageously in respect of execution and uniformity of standard with any contemporary European money, and far excel any other Oriental coinage. The inscriptions are boldly yet gracefully drawn in the rohani (and sometimes the ta'lik) character, and the borders and other ornaments are simple and artistic. The engraving was entrusted to men of reputa- tion in their art, and- the difference in their styles may be detected in the issues of the various mints, where a traditional character of writing evidently prevailed. It is easy to distinguish the issues of Kashmir from those of Lahore at a glance, and similarly those of Lahore from the coinage of Patnah, or from that of Burhanpur, &c. The difi'erences may be clearly traced in the Plates. Akbar was troubled with a perpetual restless yearning after innovation, in small matters as well as great ; and among the useless changes he devised (besides many exceedingly valuable reforms) was an alteration of the shape of the money. Coins had hitherto been usually round, which was a sufficieut reason for their being now AKBAB'S SQUARE COINS. Ixvii made square. Bound coins were obviously the more convenient, but the square shape had the merits of eccentricity and originality, though unfortunately the form was not absolutely novel, seeing that it had already been employed by the kings of Kashmir and Malwah. Akbar first tried the experiment of an oblong coin with scolloped ends (see nos. 50, 51, and compare the lozenge-shaped coin, no. 168), known as mihrdhi, because it resembled the arch of a prayer-niche ; but in 986 he began to strike square coins in gold at Fathpur, his new capital, and in silver at Fathpvir, Lahore, and other mints. The square- shape was not long retained for his gold currency, but in silver it lasted, together with the round, until the end of the reign. After Akbar square coins were seldom used ; but Jahangir struck a few, and there are four square mohrs of Shah-Jahan in the British Museum. On Akbar's square coins the long tail of the > , &c., in the names or epithets of the Four Khalifs, is turned to account to form a sort of border between the margin and the area, which contains the Kalimah ; at the same time the reverse margin is abolished, and the simple Padishah Ghdzi takes the place of the longer titles of the earlier coins. Akbar's Ildhi coinage, begun in a.h. 992, is both round and square in silver (generally square up to the 40th year of the reign, 1003), but only round in gold. The inscriptions indicate the religious changes of the time. The Muhammadan profession of faith and the Four Khalifs and their virtues have vanished, and in their place appears the new Ilahi formula, ^''i^- (J*- j--^' aA.)I, " God is most great : glorified be his glory.'' This formula either occupies the whole of the obverse, leaving the reverse for the Persian month and Ilahi year ; or j^\ aXJI appears on the obverse, and 4J'^^». Jj*. and the Ilahi year on the reverse. The Emperor's name does Ixviii PERSIAN DISTICHS. not appear upon the Ilalii currency; but it has been pointed out that^*^t aX)I not only means " God is most great/^ but also may be interpreted " Akbar is God ;" and the suggestion has been made that the Emperor played upon the double meaning. If he did so, the levity was wholly out of keeping with his character and conduct in all other respects. This coinage endured till the end of the reign, but was never imitated by Akbar's successors.* With Jahangir's coinage (after the rupees, nos. 288-9, which appear to have been struck during his governor- ship of Gujarat, and on which he is styled Salim Shah Sultan and Malik al-MulJc), a new phase in inscriptions begins. The Ilahi formula is abandoned, and the Muhammadan Kalimah rarely appears ;t and their place is filled by a doggrel Persian rhyme which is dignified by the name of distich or couplet (iu Arabic bait). The use of Persian distichs was begun on a coin of the time of Akbar,:]; but Jahangir employed them on the majority of his coins, and the Court poets were busily engaged in manipulating suitable verses. A list of these jingles is given in Index VI. Their meaning is generally nothing more than a euphuistic mode of expressing the fact that the Emperor caused the coin to be struck ; the radiancfe of the sun and the gold, or the * A curious little group of coins is described on pp. 47, 48, under the heading " Gujarat Fabric."

X See the three specimens, Nos. 254, 251a, 2546. Mr. Rodgers, who describes dated specimens of this piece (Ilahi 44, 45), remarks that it is said to have been issued by Prince Salim (Jahangir) when in rebellion against his father Akbar ; but does not cite his authority for the statement {Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, Ivii, 1888). TITLES. Ixix moon and the silver, supplying felicitous references to the glory of his Majesty's epoch. The florid inflation of the distichs, however, finds no counterpart in the enumeration of the Emperor's titles : PddisJidh Ghdzi is all he styles himself, and often plain 8hdh sufiices. When he joins his queen's name on the coins, she is described as Nur-Jahdn Pddishdh Beg am. Indeed the titles assumed by the Moghul Emperors from Jahangir onwards are singularly devoid of oriental bombast. They seldom used their proper name (as Salim, Khurram),* but employed the name assumed on (or before) coming to the throne, as Jahangir, Shah-Jahan, together with the orthodox name Muham- mad. To this they added their lakab or surname, as Niir-ad-din, Shihab-ad-din ; and sometimes a patronymic, as Abu-l-Muzafiar, Abu-1-Fath. Finally came the sove- reign title, Pddishdh Ghdzi, used by all the Emperors, except Farrukh-siyar, who preferred to style himself jj 3 ^a».j «l^iV,^ " Monarch of sea and land," andRafi'-ad- darajat, who claimed to be j.j 3 j.a^j ol^^-w '' Shah of Shahs of sea and land." Shah-Jahan added a horoscopic title, Bdhib Kirdn Sdni, " Second Lord of [auspicious] Con- junction" — his ancestor Timiir being the first; and the same style was adopted by ShujtV and Muhammad. Murad Bakhsh, who had the patronymic Abu-1-Muzaffar, and the unique lakab Muzaivivaj-ad-din, "Wedded to the Faith," (?) assumed the title of ^Jl5 jj..;Cw, '' The Second Alexander." Aurangzib was given to ostenta- tious humility, and beyond his throne-name 'Alamgir, * Shah-Jahan's first Lahore rupee is an exception to this rule : here he is styled Abu-1-MuzafFar Nasir-ad-dm Muhammad Shah-Jahan Khurram, though afterwards his lakab is always Shihab-ad-din, and his proper name, Khurram, never recurs. This coin may have been struck on the occasion of his first proclamation as Emperor, which took place at Lahore, 2 Jumada I., 1037; and the style may have been altered when he ascended the throne at Agrah a fortnight later. Ixx ANAGRAM. generally called liimself plain Slidh, rarely Padishah or Padishah Ghdzi, and only twice or thrice engraved his lakab, &c., in the form Muhayyi-ad-din Muhammad Bahadur. A'zam Shah had a title of his own, Padishah Mamdlih, " King of Realms.'^ Jahandar was Padishah Jahdn and Sahib Kir an. Niku-siyar was Pddishdhi zamdn 8hdh hi-lutfi-lldh Muhammad, " Monarch of the Age, King by the grace of God." Ahmad used the epithet Bahddur, and ^xilamgir II. was styled Abu-l-'AdI ^Aziz-ad-din, ''Father of justice, Honoured of the Faith;" while Shah-'Alam invented a new formula, including the title ol^^b^^^ oU' J)~»ai>-o a)I 0^:;^ ^-o^*- '^Defender of the divine Faith," &c. One of Jahangir's inscriptions contains an anagram : " The letters of Jahdngir and Allahu Akhar Are equal in value from the beginning of time." This is explained by the fact that the letters ?r (31 , » (5), I (1), O (50), ^ (20), ^ (10), and J (200), of j.Xl^a-, and those of >*^1 aJJI, » (1), J J (30, 30), o (5), \ (1), ^ (20), w» (2), J (200), when added together, respectively make up the sum of 289. The general arrangement of the inscriptions after Jahangir is very regular. Persian distichs become rare, and the Kalimah, with the mint and month,* occupies the obverse, and the imperial titles the reverse of Shah-Jahan^s money, sometimes entirely in the area, sometimes divided between area and margin; while the Hijrahdate and regnal year are variously distributed between the obverse and reverse: on some coins the Four Khalifs and their virtues, followed by the mint, surround the Kalimah. The inscrip- tions on the Nisdrs (see § 7) are more elementary. The usurpers Murad and Shuja' imitated Shah- Jahan's arrange- * The names of months rarely occur after A.H. 1041. AUBANOZIB'S FORMULA.

One Emperor alone, the devout 'Alamgir II., restored for a single year the Muhammadan Kalimah and the Four Khalifs with their virtues, which had been in disuse since Shah-Jahan^s reign.

The general term for a gold coin is moTir, commonly called mohur (a '^seaP' or '*■ impression"); for a silver coin, rujjee (or more accurately rupih), and for the copper coin dam. But in Akbar's time the diflferent varieties and subdivisions had separate names. Abu-l-Fazl's list of these names ought to be of great value to the numismatist, but, in fact, it forms but another instance of the incapacity of oriental (and for that matter most European) historians to describe accurately or systematically the coins which passed under their own eyes. Al-Makrizi's well-known treatise is a case in point. It is the best account we have of Arabic numismatics by an Arabic writer, but it is far from being what it might easily have been made, had the author made an adequate study of his subject. Abu-l-Fazl gives a long list of names, without supplying the necessary means of identifying the coins to which they belong. Many of the types he describes do not appear to have been preserved in any collection, whilst many existing coins are not described. His list may be conveniently arranged as follows. All are round coins, unless otherwise described. Akbar's Coinage. Gold. Sihansahy or 100 mohr piece. (Maksiid's work.) Obv. Kalimah. Margin, wjU.^. jm tlLj ^j.^ Jjjj *a« Lj.

He also mentions that in the 27th year of Akbar's reign four kinds of mohr were allowed to be current, viz. the La'l-i Jaldhi, which was quite pure, and worth 400 dams ; the mohr (360 dams) ; the mohr reduced by wear (355 dams), and the mohr much rubbed (350 dams) ; also three kinds of rupees, viz. square, pure silver, worth 40 dams ; the old round Akharshdhi (39 dams), and worn specimens of both (38 dams). These regulations for passing worn coin ABU-L-FAZL'S INVENTORY. kxv were modified in the 29th and 36th years of the reign. It is clear that Abu-1-Fazl is writing of Akbar's later coinage, after the introduction of the Ildhi issues, and that he does not concern himself much with the earlier coins, which he refers to under the name of " the old round Ahbarshdhi." In silver, he only mentions Ildhi rupees and jaldlahs, though he refers to the older Ka~ limah coins in gold as ynolirs. He is obviously wrong in attributing an issue of La'l-i Jaldlis to the 27th year of the reign, for it was not till the 28th year that the Ilahi era and the formula Jalla Jaldluhu were introduced. Of Akbar's large coins (100, 60, 20, and 2 mohr pieces) not one is known in modern collections; but a five mohr piece is preserved in the British Museum (no. 23), which is not mentioned in Abu-l-Fazl's list. A few of the single mohrs may be identified. Nos. 50 and 51 are undoubtedly Mihrdhis from their shape, resembling the arch of a niche for prayer, and the lozenge-shaped coin no. 168 may be a variety of this species. The Chahdr goshahjOT "four-cornered," sounds very like thesame thing. No coin of Akbar in the Museum bears the inscription ,j-a^ Lt (0 Protector)* ; but it appears on some of Jahangir's issues. Of the Ilahi gold, no. 165 is an Aftdbi, and 164 a EaM' or quarter- Aftabi ; but no. 163 has the inscriptions of the square La'l-i Jaldli, only it is round. It seems probable that Abu-1-Fazl, whilst describing a round La'l-i Jaldli, equal to two mohrs, omitted to mention that there was also a round La'l-i Jaldli single mohr. He also entirely ignores the singular square issue of Fathpur in 986, etc., and of Urdu-Zafar-Karin of 1000, though these have the peculiarities of a square form, and a heavier weight than the rest. The difierence of value seems to have depended upon the purity, and * One is described by Mr. Delmerick, with no mint, but year 981> in J.B.A.S. xlv. Ixxvi WEIGHT. not upon the weight, and this cannot be tested without injuring the coins. Of the silver pieces mentioned by Abu-1-Fazl, it is easy to recognize the Rupee in {e.g.) no. 177, and the square Jaldlah in 179 and 185, etc. ; the Darb in 184, the Cham in 188, the Asht in 202, etc. ; Of the copper, the Dams and half Dams (Adhelahs), are called fulus on their inscriptions, and tankahs and double tankahs occur.* In Jahangir's Memoirs f some names of his coins are recorded, but they only refer to phenomenal pieces. The Nur-i Shdhi was equal to 2000 tolahs, the Nur-i Jahdn to 1000, the Nur-i daulat to 500, the Ntir-mohr to 100. The tolah was substituted for the gold rupee (i.e. mohr). There were corresponding pieces in silver. The tolah was probably the heavier coin issued by Jahangir in the first five years of his reign. The weiijht of the Moghul coinage, allowing for wear, is strikingly exact and uniform, as soon as the uncertainty of the earliest issues is passed. There are no gold coins of Babar in the British Museum, but his silver pieces weighed from 69 to 73 grs., and were doubtless intended for dirhams of the Timuri standard, not rupees. Humayun struck small gold pieces of 13 to 16 grs. and 8 grs. {\ and i of dinar), and silver of 37, 47, 68, 71, 72, 73, 110, 112, 113, and 180 grs., in which we may perhaps trace a transition from the Transoxine dirham to the full rupee weight of 180 grs. Akbar, with his habitual compre- hension of the exigencies of the time, began at once with an Indian standard, and his weights of 170 grs. for the gold mohr, and 180 for the silver rupee, continued to be the accepted model, with few exceptions, throughout the rule of his dynasty. His gold coins (in the British Museum series) vary in weight from 166 to * See below, § 8. t Transl. Major D. Price, p. 11. WEIGHT. Ixxvii 169, and only a few worn coins drop to 164, 162, and one to 157. The square issue of Fatlipur and Lahore 986 — 8, and Urdu-Zafar-Karin rise to a diflferent standard of 186 to 187 grs., with sub-divisions of 93 and 46 : but the object of this alteration is not known, nor is it referred to by the historians. In 992, the new Ilahi issue was introduced, with the weight at first of 187, and later of 168 (for 170). A few early gold coins weigh only 18 and 9 grs., like Humayun's, and two of A.H. 988 weigh 15 grs. The silver coinage was clearly intended to weigh 180 grs., though most of the existing specimens are reduced a few grains by wear. The half rupee weighs from 86 to 89 grs. ; the quarter from 42 to 44 ; and the eighth, from 19 to 21. Jahangir for the first five years of his reign, up to a.h. 1019, used a weight of 202, rising finally to 211 grs., for his gold coins, and 212, rising to 220, for his rupees (and 105-106 for the half-rupee) : but after 1019, except in the case of four coins of Kandahar and Kashmir, he reverted to Akbar's standard, and his mohr weighs about 168, and his quarter-mohr 42, while his rupee weighs about 176 grs., and the half-rupee, 89. One five mohr piece of his is preserved, weighing 843 grs., which gives 168f to the mohr. Shah-Jahan, Aurangzib, Bahadur, Muhammad, etc., follow the same standard; but a few of Farrukh- siyar's rupees, struck at Katak and Jahangirnagar, rise as high as 187 grs. A curious variety of gold coin was issued by Farrukh- siyar, Muhammad, and 'Alamgir II., in addition to their ordinary mohrs. The coins of this type are very small, with a diameter of '4 to •5in. for the larger, weighing 51 to 53 grs., and of '3 or '35 for the smaller, weighing 22 grs. In the character of the engraving they resemble other small issues of Southern India, and two of their mints are in the Deccan, Imtiyaz-garh and Giiti. The former Ixxviii WEIGHT. has always been read Karrah, oj^, the city in the Duab, and the word beneath it has been interpreted as referring to the coin : " decoration of Karrah." There can be no doubt, however, that the two form a compound name Imtiyaz-garh, o^ J*^', " Distinction Fort/' or " Fort par excellence," which, according to Mr. C. J. Rodgers, was a name given by Aurangzib to Adwani, the Adoni of the maps, a little north of Guti. The close similarity of its style would lead one to look for the third mint, Gangpur, in the same neighbourhood : but the district of Gangpur is in Chutia Nagpur. Possibly it has some traditional connexion with the old Ganga dynasty of Talkad in Mysore ; or it may relate to one of the sacred rivers of Southern India. Of its Deccan fabric there can be no doubt. 1 ( Ixxix ) § 6. IMAGES AND ZODIACAL SIGNS. The Moghul Emperors, with the exception of Aurangzib 'Alamgir and his name-sake 'Alamgir II., were far from strict in their observance of the laws of the Koran. As has been seen, they were commonly addicted to the use of intoxicating liquors ; they married unbelieving wives, instead of making them merely con- cubine slaves in accordance with the orthodox custom of Islam, and their encouragement of the fine arts was free from the trammels of Koranic Puritanism. They were fond of pictures and sculpture, and paid no regard to the divine ordinance which prohibited the representation of living beings in art. They even delighted to adorn their palaces with paintings and statues portraying scenes which belong to the sacred traditions of Christianity, and images of the Blessed Virgin and portraits of St. John Baptist contributed to the decoration of their Court. The same disregard of orthodox prejudices may be occasionally observed on their coinage. So long, indeed, as the Muslim profession of faith occupied its rightful place on Akbar's coins, no profane image desecrated the formula : but after the Emperor had discovered the errors of Islam and had founded his own '' Divine Religion,^' the objection to the representation of living things on the coins was no longer in force. Yet Akbar used images very sparingly. A falcon is depicted on the first and only coin of Asir (No. 166), possibly in allusion to the conquering swoop of the besiegers. On No. 173, a duck appears on a coin of Agrah. Another gold coin, without the name of the mint, bears a curious representation of a crowned archer, with stretched bow and sheaf of arrows, followed by a Ixxx BACCHANALIAN COINS. woman, who draws back her long veil from her face. This may refer to the submission (in a.h. 1013, the date of this coin) of the King of Bijapur, which was accom- panied by the gift of his daughter to be the bride of Prince Daniyal, Akbar^s son. Jahangcir's use of images on the coinage was much more o o o marked than his father's. In the sixth year of his reign (1020) he ventured upon the daring innovation of engraving his own portrait on some of his gold coins. He is represented in bust with head turned to the left, and face wearing only a moustache ; the shoulders are covered by a brocaded di*ess, and a turban adorned with the imperial jikkah or egret is on his head ; his hand holds sometimes a book, sometimes fruit ; and sometimes he holds a book in one hand and a goblet in the other. If, as is probable, the book is intended for the Koran, its combination with a wine-cup must have been regarded by orthodox Muslims as an outrage. In the following year (1021), and in 1023, Jahiingir placed on some of his gold pieces his royal person seated cross-legged on a throne, with the inseparable goblet raised in his right hand, and with an aureole or nimbus round his head, which he pro- bably derived from some Christian paintings, but which wears a singularly incongruous air in conjunction with the wine-cup and the Emperor's bacchanalian pose. On the reverse of most of these portrait coins is a lion surmounted by the sun, apparently setting behind it, or, in astrological language Sol in covstellatione Leonis, the sun entering the sign Leo ; but on some coins the sun appears without the lion. The presence of the sun has been explained as a reference to the fact that Jahangir was born on a Sunday ; but it is more probable that the sun's image appears in virtue of the tendency towards solar worship which undoubtedly found en- couragement under Akbar, and was never positively BACCHANALIAN COINS. Ixxxi repudiated by liis successor. Ifc is possible that the choice of the zodiacal sign Leo may be connected with the month (rather than the day) of the Emperor's birth, which was surrounded by mysterious omens and spiritual agencies, if we are to believe the historians. It is not probable that these " bacchanalian coins," as they have been called, were intended for general circulation. They would have caused deep umbi-age to any orthodox Sunnls into whose hands they fell, and even Shiya'is, with all their freedom from traditional prejudice, would hardly have relished these vinous repre- sentations. The portrait-coins were doubtless in the nature of medals or presentation pieces, rather than money for circulation. The ordinary coinage without images continued to be struck simultaneously with the " bacchanalian " issues. On the other hand, the well-known zodiacal coins of Jahangir were certainly intended to pass as ordinary money, and generally took the place of the common coinage of the Agra mint during the eight years of their issue (1027-34). Tavernier, who visited the court of Aurangzib in the middle of the seventeenth century, was the first to report the pretty legend that Nur- Jahan, the Emperor's gifted wife, begged her adoring husband to allow her twenty-four hours of supreme sovereignty, and, on obtaining his consent, immediately issued the celebrated zodiacal coins, having previously had the necessary bullion collected and the dies engraved with her own name and that of the Emperor. The story is refuted by the zodiacal coins themselves : they do not, as a rule, bear Nur-Jahan^s name ; and instead of being all of one date, and issued within twenty-four hours, they are spread over eight years.* Jahangir's own account of the origin • Two zodiacal mohrs (not in the British Mnsenm) present the name of Nur-Jahan as well aa that of Jahangir, and bear the latest I Ixxxii ZODIACAL COINS. of these pieces is doubtless correct and authentic. He says in his Memoirs* " Formerly it was customary to strike my name on one side of the coin, and that of the place, and the month, and the year of the reign, on the obverse. It now occurred to my mind that, instead of the name of the month, the figure of the sign of the zodiac corresponding to the particular month, should be stamped. For instance, in the month of Farwardin, the figure of a ram, in Ardibihist that of a bull, and so on ; that is, in every month in which a coin might be struck, the figure of the constellation in which the sun might be at the time, should be impressed on one side of it. This was my own innovation : it had never been done before." The British Museum possesses an unrivalled series of these zodiacal issues.f It includes a complete set of all the zodiacal signs in genuine mohrs, with several varieties of each sign, in all forty-three specimens ; seven signs (fourteen coins) of the silver zodiacal rupees, in which a complete set of the signs is not known to exist; ten gold and one silver specimen of mediaeval forgeries, and a complete series of the signs in modern imitation half-rupees. Some of the signs are rarer than others, and Aquarius is especially rare in both metals. The figures of the various signs, combined with the solar rays, as a rule agree with their traditional repre- sentation. The ram, humped bull, embracing twins, crab, lion, scales, scorpion, centaur, Capricorn, and two fish present no special peculiarities. Bat Virgo appears in three different forms on the genuine mohrs ; first as the known date, 1034. One of these, of the sign Cancer, and mint Ajmir, was described by Mr. Gibbs in Proceedings of the As. Soc. of Bengal, 1883. The other, in the Bibliotheque Nationale, is engraved in Bonneville, and mentioned by Marsden, Num. Orient. 630. • Tuzak-i JaJidngM, ED. vi. 357. t It does not, however, possess any of the earliest year, 1027, nor of the latest, 1034. ZODIACAL COINS. Ixxxiii traditional standing winged figure with ear of corn ; secondly, as a squatting woman with a braid of hair down her back, — a typical Indian figure; and thirdly, as a woman with a pitcher on her head, who might be described as a female Aquarius ; and a fourth form, of a dancing girl, appears on one of the forged mohrs, Aquarius is represented as an old man with a pitcher of water, or by the pitcher alone. The zodiacal coins, both gold and silver, have always attracted much attention and emulation among collectors. The Hindus after a time came to regard them as talis- mans, to be worn prophylactically round the neck,* and English ladies have not despised them as ornaments. They have consequently been extensively forged, and few collections exist which do not contain some of these imitations. A distinction, however, must be drawn between different classes of these forgeries. There is (1) a small class of gold zodiacal mohrs which are clearly ancient, and in spite of their rude workmanship and the peculiar forms of the zodiacal signs, may not be forgeries at all, but merely trial-pieces of Jahangir's time : such are nos. 333c, 339, and 346a, all of the year 1030 and 16th of the reign, which are represented in the lowest line of Plate X. On the whole, I believe them to be almost contemporary imitations. Then (2) there are more recent forgeries, distinguished by a certain crude- ness and sharpness in the drawing and execution of the figures, and a tendency to blunder in the Persian in- scriptions; these are numbered, in the gold, 376 to 384 in the Catalogue ; and there is but one silver forgery of * Marsden states that his zodiacal coins came from Mr. Crow, formerly chief of the Surat factory of the East India Company ; and adds that the Hindus treated them as talismans. Lieut. Edward Moor {Narrative of the operations of Captain Little's Detachment, 490) mentions the sale of a set of zodiacal mohrs at Bombay in 1790 for the sum of 2500 rupees. IxxxiT ZODIACAL FOBGERIES. this class, the rupee no. 385. In the representation of Virgo, the forgeries show, besides the usual type (as the true coin 338, and the forgery 378), a curious figure of a dancing woman, which does not occur on any genuine mohr at present known. Finally (3), there is a class of modern half-rupees which, unlike the first two classes, can never have been intended to pass as counter- feit money, but must have been either an avowedly new currency, or else intended merely as ornaments. They are struck from the same dies as the imitation gold mohrs, or from dies closely resembling them ; and thus bearing inscriptions peculiar to mohrs, and not borne by rupees, would have been immediately detected. They were probably struck to please somebody's fancy, and tradition ascribes them to a Frenchman, Colonel Martine, well known in the history of the Company's power in India; but Marsden denies this, on the authority of the Colonel's personal friends. In spite of general indications in the style and fabric, there is often considerable difficulty in distinguishing the imitation from the genuine mohrs, and numismatists are frequently found to differ in their decisions. In dis- tinguishing the British Museum forgeries, the late Mr. James Gibbs' experience has proved of value.* * See Journal of the Bombay Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society, xiv. 155-160, and Proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1883. 'V ( Ixxxv ) § 7. NISABS OB PRESENTATION MONEY. Among tlie coins of the Moghul Emperors^ from Ja- hangir onwards^ certain pieces, generally of small size, bear the word nisdr (jli»), which means " scattering." These coins were struck for the purpose of distribution among the crowd on the occasion of certain festivities, such as marriages, or progresses of state, and the like. They were in fact a species of Maundy Money. The custom is common in Eastern countries and survives to the present day. The Moghul coins struck for this purpose (except Aurangzib's) are economically thin for their diameter, and weigh from 43 to 44 grains {i.e. ^ mohr or rupee) ; but one weighs 88 grains, and another 22. They are executed with considerable elegance, and have a border of dots. Aurangzib's, on the other hand, are clumsy and thick, of South Indian fabric, and weigh 44 grains. The British Museum contains no specimen of Jahangir's nisdrs, but Mr. Rodgers has described three, of Ajmir in the 10th year of the reign, Ahmadabad in the 13th, and Agrah in the 14th year ; and also two of Shah-Jahau, of Kashmir and Lahore ; and adds that he has never seen any others.* The British Museum, however; has ten of these coins, viz : — Shdh-JaUn.

The same sign (or its points) appears on Jahandar's nisdr, but not on those of Aurangzib or 'Alamgir II. This abbrevia- tion has not hitherto been noticed, and its meaning is enigmatical. As it occurs on coins of four different mints, and two different weights (44 and 88 grs.) it can neither be a mint-mark nor a sign of denomination. Nisdrs were used for other purposes than scattering I among crowds. The word is also used as signifying the i periodical tribute or gift, symbolical of homage, rendered to the Moghul Emperor on certain festivals, such as the anniversary of his coronation, or New Year's day. Mr. ^ Delmerick says* that "coins used to be specially struck in his [Bahadur II.'s] name and offered as part of the '■ customary nazar by the Resident on behalf of the British Government,'^ until the practice was abolished by Lord Ellenborough " in the cold season of 1842-3." I have no doubt that the coins used for this purpose were the thin pieces issued in the name of Shah-'Alam, of Muhammad Akbar, and of Bahadur II,, at Shahjahanabad, the residence of the titular Emperors under British protec- tion. They are numbered in the Catalogue nos. 1104-9, 1210-16, 1221-2, and in style they closely resemble the thin half-rupee nisdr of Shah-Jahan, no. 669, which is 1"15 in. broad, yet weighs only 88 grs. They are not in the least like current coins meant for circulation, but they are unmistakeably like nisdrs, though the name does not occur in their inscriptions. * Joiiriial of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, xlv. 295. GIGANTIC COINS. Ixxxvii In connexion with occasional coins of this kind, mention should be made of certain abnormally large and heavy pieces, two of which, though not the largest, are found in the British Museum series. These are both five-mohr pieces, issued by Akbar at Agrah in a.h. 971 and by Jahangir at Agrah in 1028, and weigh respectively 838 and 843 grains. There are also preserved in the British Museum two casts of a gigantic 200-mohr piece of Shah-Jahan, 5f in. in diameter, with mint Shah-jahan- abad, and date 1064, regnal year 28. It is represented in full size in pi. xxxiii. The inscriptions are as follows : — Obv. Area, within square, (•If" a lL_-)t Jj) ..'J Margin, in segments, ^^'-^ j^-ij ^"^J L5-^^ .^'■J3 Rev.

Cunningham states that the original coin was at Patnah some fifty to eighty years ago. According to Richardson, it weighed above 70 oz. (33,600 grs.), and had a diameter of 4 inches.* Mr. Gibbs also published a photograph of a lOO-mohr piece of Aurangzib, struck at Shahjahanabad, a.h. 1083, Y.R. 15, diameter 4 in., thickness j in., weight 35 oz. 4 dwt., or ] 6,880 grs., belonging to the Maharaja Sindhia.f One like it was at Benares 45 years ago, according to Sir A. Cunningham. A silver coin of Aurangzib's at Dresden, issued at Shahjahanabad in the tenth year of his reign, has a diameter of 4*4 in., and a weight of 5" 15 English Ibs.J General Cunningham is of opinion that these large pieces were probably " Nazzarnana medals,^' given to the Emperor by nobles who paid their tribute in a single lump coin. § That such large pieces were not infrequently struck is shown by the inventory of Jahaugir's treasure given by William Hawkins, in which we find these items : " Of another sort of Coyne, of a thousand rupias [i.e. 100 mohrs] a piece, there are twenty thousand pieces. Of another sort, of halfe the value, there are ten thousand pieces. Of another sort of Gold, of twenty Tolas a piece, there are thirty thousand pieces.

There were also, in silver, " of another sort of coin of Selim Sha this King, of an hundred Tolas a piece, forty thousand pieces,'^* &c. Aurangzib, as he grew old, displayed a notable talent for hoarding money. According to the Venetian physician Manouchi, he devised peculiar safeguards for his treasure. "He caused to be constructed under his palace at Dely two deepcaves, supported by vast marble pillars. Piles of gold were stored in the one, and of silver in the other ; and to render more difficult any attempt to convey away his treasure, he caused, of both metals, pieces to be made of so prodigious a size as to render them useless for the purpose of commerce," meaning currency .f Such, no doubt, are the pieces belonging to the Maharaja Sindhia and the Dresden Cabinet. Doubtless, the reason that so few of these unwieldy coins have come down to us is that they were melted down into the current coin of commerce. * The Hawkins Voyages (Hakluyt Society), 421-2. + See Appendix iv. to Bernier's Travels, edited by Arch. Constable {Oriental Miscellany), 476. ( xc ) § 8. COPPEB. COINAGE. The rarest of all Moghul coins are those of copper. The British Museum possesses seventeen specimens of the early local issues of the time of Babar and Humayun (pp. 262-4), thirty-nine copper coins of Akbar, one of Jahangir ; but none of any other Emperor. The reason for this singular scarcity of copper is the general use of other substances for petty currency in India. Cowries formed the chief small change of Bengal, and bitter al- monds of Bombay. Admiral John Splinter Stavorinus (1768-71) states that " copper coin is not seen in Bengal. For change they make use of the small sea-shells called cowries, eighty of which make a jponi; and sixty, or sixty- five ponis, according as there are few or many cowries in the country, make a rupee.

TANKAHS AND TANKIS. sciii According to the Ain-i Akhari the dam or copper unit of Akbar weighed 1 tolah, 8 mcishas, 7 ratis, or, at Mr. Thomas's estimate of the rati, 323'5 grs. It is therefore clear that the coins which are named fulils in their in- scriptions, and weigh from 307 to 325 grs., are dams, whilst the Kabul specimen of 153 grs. is an adhelah or half-dam ; the Lahore piece of 78 grs. a pdulah or quarter- dam ; and the two coins of 36 and 37 grs. ddmris or eighths of a dam. Mr. Kodgers has published a half- dam (>>b ^i'->, specifically so named) of 148 "7 grs., a ddmri of 40 grs., and a ddmrd (presumably two damris, or 1 paulah) of 76 grs. The mohr of Ilahabas (315 grs.) is also clearly a dam, and the word moh^ is probably used, not as a denomination, but merely as meaning " stamp." The term tanhali appears to be used just as vaguely as fulus, both for dams of 315 to 327 grs. and double dams of 618 to 644 grs. Mr. Kodgers states that his weights prove that the tankah was equal to two dams : but I do not draw the same inference. All his weights prove is that some tankahs weighed about 630 grs., and others about 320. He publishes a coin specifically named an eigMliofsb tankah, weighing nearly 40 grs., which brings the tankah to 320 grs., and also sixteenths of 38"5 grs., which would make it 616 grs. The tdnhi is quite distinct from the tanJcah. It weighs 58 or 59 grs., and its double weighs 108 to 122 grs. ; while four-tdnki pieces weigh 237 to 244 grs. According to Mr. Rodgers the tdnJci is a weight, not a coin, and he endeavours unsuccessfully to reconcile its weight (say 62 grs. when unworn) with the " jeweller's tank,'' which is stated in the Ain to be of 24 ratis (42 grs). A more probable hypothesis would be that, just as there were Jifth parts {panj,pandan,pandu) of the mohr and rupee, so the ddm had its fifth, called a tdnki. The weight, of QS grs. or so, corresponds fairly well with xciv COFFER COINAGE. one-fiftli of the dam of about 320 grs. ; and tlie du tdnJci and chu tdnki pieces would correspond to ftlis and |tlis of the dam. To sum up, allowing for wear, we have roughly — The Dam {jyaisah, fuUs, tanhah), about 320 grains. ^ „ (adhelah, mm dam, nasfi), 160 grs. i „ {paulah, ddmrd), 80 grs.

Further investigation and the discovery of more specimens may confirm or modify these conclusions. ( xcv ) § 9. COINAGE OF THE EAST INDIA COMPANY. In tie latter part of this volume will be found descrip- tions of various coins issued by tlie East India Company in imitation of the Moghul currency. According to the principle of classification adopted in the Department of Coins, all clearly European issues, by which are meant coins issued with European legends or images, struck in the colonies and British possessions abroad, are placed among what is termed the British Colonial Series; and accordingly the early issues of Elizabeth, the obviously English coins of the Bombay factory, and the Imperial currency instituted by the Company in 1835, with the head of the King or the Lion on the obverse, etc., are omitted from the present volume and included in the Colonial Series. But when the Company's coins bear the name of an Indian sovereign, and were intended to pass among the people as though they had been struck by that sovereign himself, they cannot be regarded as part of the regular Colonial Series, but must be classed along with the coins which they avowedly counterfeit. Thus the coins issued by the Madras and Calcutta authorities, nominally from the mint of Arkat, in 1815, etc., are included in this Catalogue, because they bear the name of 'Alamgir II. ; and similarly the Company's well-known "19 san " rupee of 1793 — 1835 is described in this volume, because it bears the name of Shah-'Alam, though it continued to be issued long after this Emperor's death. The task of distinguishing the Company's imitations from the Moghul issues is not always easy, and some- times is impossible. Considerations of fabric, mint- marks, &c., are of assistance, but a knowledge of the xcvi EAST IXDIA COMPANY. mint records is essential to a final and permanent classi- fication, and it may be doubted whether even these would avail to solve a large proportion of the complicated problems presented by the coinage. At present, how- ever, this branch of information has been but imperfectly investigated. A considerable number of important facts has been collected by Prinsep, Marsden, Ruding, Atkins, and Sir Walter Elliot, &c.; and recently a valuable addi- tion has been made to our sources by Mr. Edgar Thurston, the superintendent of the Madras Central Museum, who has explored the archives of the Madras mint.* It is much to be desired that similar researches should be made at Calcutta and Bombay ; for until this is done more completely than Prinsep was able to do it, any detailed classification must be more or less tentative. A cursory glance at the history of the Company's coinage will show the causes of this difficulty of classifica- tion. Although the first charter of the "Old "f or London East India Company (styled in full, " The Governor and Company of Merchants of London trading into the East Indies,") dates from the close of the year 1600, the Directors never assumed the right to authorize the issue of a universal currency for India, hearing the Company's name, till 1835. During this long interval several methods were employed to meet the monetary exigencies of their trade. For example, special coins with the device of a portcullis were exported from England in Elizabeth's reign for use in the Company's factories : * History of the Coinage of the Territories of the East India Company in the Indian Peninsula, &c., with 20 plates. Madras, 1890. t So called to distinguish it from the later "English Company " or " General Society," founded in 1698. The two were united in 170S-9 under the title of " The United Company of Merchants of England trading to the East Indies," commonly called the Honourable East India Company. The natives called it Jahdn-Kumpani, " Company of the World," whence the nickname "John Company." ROYAL CHARTERS. xcvii such, however, would of course be employed only for trade with European nations, and would not pass in the interior of India. When Charles ll/s queen brought him, as part of her dowry, the port and island of Bombay (in 1661, but the place was not surrendered till 1665), the king by Letters Patent dated 27 March, 1669, transferred them to the Company, to be held " as of the Manor of East Greenwich " in free and common soccage at a farm rent of 10/. Bombay soon (1685) became the seat of the Western Presidency, and already in 1671 a mint was founded, where the Company's agents by royal permis- sion issued a local coinage of their own with English inscriptions, for circulation in the island and the immediate neighbourhood. The Letters Patent of 5 October, 1677, contain the following clause on this subject ; " Slntl QISiO of our farther especiall grace vertuwe knowledge and meere motion 2j2Ht tiOt by these presents for us our Heires and Successors give and graunt unto the said Governor and Company of Merchants of London trading into the East Indies and their Successors full and free liberty power and Authority from tyme to tyme and at all tymes hereafter within the Port and Island of Bombay in the East Indies and the Precincts and Territoryes thereof and thereunto belong- ing to Stamp and Coyne or Caused to bee Stamped and Coyned moneys of Gold Silver Copper Tynne or Lead or of any mixt mettall Compounded or made up of them or auy of them to bee Currant within the said Port and Island Fort and Townes and the Precincts and Territories thereof And also in all the Islands Ports Havens Cittys Creeks Townes and Places whatsoever within the East Indies Expressed mentioned or contayned in our said severall Charters or Letters Patents herein before men- tioned or either of them with such Impression and n xcviii EARLY BOMBAY COINAGE. Inscription thereupon to bee made and to bee called or knowne by the Name or Names of Rupees Pices and Budgerookes," etc.* The historian Khafi Khan records that "some rupees which the English had coined at Bombay with the name of their impure king," were shown to the Emperor Aurangzib in 1694 (a.h. 1105); but when Khafi Khan was sent to expostulate, the chief of the Bombay factory explained that these pieces were only " current in our own jurisdiction,"-j- Such coins are, therefore, properly classed as English colonial currency. For circulation among the natives in India, the Company were forced either to send their bullion to be minted by the Moghul governors, or to imitate at various local mints the common coins of the contemporary Moghul Emperor. The native princes having raised objections to this exercise of the privilege of coining, the Company obtained further powers by Letters Patent from James II., dated 1 2 April, 1686 (a.h. 1097), by which they were authorized to issue at all their forts copies of the current native coins, on the condition that they maintained an equal weight and fineness with the pieces they copied. The Bombay factory was directed to use " such stamps, dies, and tools, as were common in the country." J In 1688-9, the native authorities, anxious to obviate the exercise of this royal permission, granted the Company the right to send their bullion to be coined at the Moghul mint at Surat ; but it appears they preferred to continue their practice of coining at Bombay. At this early period there is no means of distinguish- ing between the Moghul issues and the Company^s * Facsimile in Journal of Indian Art, No. 31. See also Sir G.

CONCESSIONS OF FARRUKII-SIYAR. xcix imitations. Nor can we be certain that a coin bear- ing the name of a certain city was struck at that mint. We read, for example, that the Bengal Council in 1707 (1119), sent a specimen of the new Emperor Bahadur's rupees to Fort St. George to be copied for use in the trade with Bengal* But it is specially mentioned that this rupee was not to be used at Madras, because it might give offence to the rival Emperor, or pretender, Kam Bakhsh, whose influence was then predominant in the Deccan. Thus Bengal rupees f might be coined at Madras, and (as will be seen) Madras rupees at Calcutta. So far all coining by the Company at their own mints was carried on with difficulty and interruption, and against the will of the Moghul rulers ; indeed, the Company's coinage was at this period simple forgery, though the fact that it passed among the natives shows that it was intrinsically as good as the imperial currency, from which it apparently could not be distinguished. But in 1717 (1129) the Company were permitted to escape from this invidious position. In that year the Emperor Farrukh-siyar, yielding, no doubt, to substan- tial persuasions, and perceiving the futility of resistance, granted a firman by which the English were allowed to coin money of the Empire in the island of Bombay.J The permission, however, is said to have not been practically put in force till 1725 (1137), when the Bombay mint, which had apparently fallen into disuse, no doubt by reason of the Emperor's opposition, was rebuilt.§ In 1742 (1154-5) the Company were also granted permission to coin rupees in imitation of those struck by the Imperial * Thurston, op. cit., 24. f The word rupee is often oflBcially used in a general sense to include both gold and silver coins ; and we come across the term " gold rupee " in the writings of European travellers.

The French Compagnie des Indes exercised a similar privilege of issuing " Arkat " rupees at Pondicherry. The Arkat rupees struck at Madras had the mark of a trisid, or " Siva^s trident " ; those struck at Calcutta, a rose; and the French, a crescent.f In Bengal the Company were for a long time obliged to send their bullion to be coined at the mints of the Nawab of the province, which were at Dhakka, Patnah, and Murshidabad. But at length in 1759 (1171-2), the Nawab Siraj-ad-daulah gave them per- mission to establish a mint of their own at Calcutta. J In 1764 (1176), after the battle of Buxar, the Moghul Emperor Shah-'Alam submitted to the English, who in 1765 took over the administration of what remained of his realm, but assigned to him the province of Allahabad with the district of Korah, together with a subsidy for his establishment. § In taking over the administration, the Company also assumed the right of coinage. At first, indeed, the Nawab of Bengal continued to strike coins, whilst agreeing to pass Calcutta rupees as equal to those of his own mint of Murshidabad ; but the mints at Patnah, Dhakka, and Murshidabad were soon abolished, and all the coins for Bengal were struck at Calcutta, whatever supposititious mint name they might bear.|| * Prinsep, Useful Tables, 24. + Thurston, op. cit., 50; 102 note. % J^^^^- 33. § This was arranged by the Treaty of Allahabad, dated 16 Aug., 1765, between the English and the Nawab Vazir of Oudh, and by "Articles of agreement," dated 19 Aug., 1765, confirming certain firmans of the 12th of the same month. The Treaty is given in fac- simile in the Journal of Indian Art, No 31. The coin issued in the Emperor's name at Calcutta in a.h. 1176, the only piece of its kind, seems to have been struck in commemoration of this event. It is iu the nature of a medal. 1] Thurston, op. ci^, 3i, 38. MURSHIDABAD. ci Here, then, we come upon one of the perplexities of this period. For some years after 1 765 there appears to have been a double issue in Bengal, — the Nawab'a and the Company's ; and no recoi-d so far has been pub- lished of the distinction between the two. In the classi- fication of these issues in the present volume, the principal guide has been the style and fabric of the coins themselves. In 1793 (1207-8) the Company endeavoured to put an end to the existing confusion and discrepancies of weight and purity by establishing a standard currency which should supersede the various local issues. For this purpose they selected the coinage struck at Mur- shidabad in the 19th year of Shah-'Alam's reign as the most suitable for imitation, — presumably because the most correct in standard and the most perfect in design and execution. The result was the coin familiar to Anglo- Indians under the name of the " 19 san " or " sikkah " rupee (and mohr) of Murshidabad, which was now fixed as the standard coin to the exclusion of all others in Bengal, though the old rupees of the 11th, 12Dh and loth year were still to pass current until there should be a sufficiency of the new coinage.* The old mints at Dhakka, Patnah, and Murshidabad are said to have been revived for this issue : but Marsden asserts that it was all coined at Calcutta. The 19th year of Shah- 'Alamos reign was retained on the obverse, whatever Hijrah year might appear on the reverse, and this absurd anachronism went on until the true colonial coinage of 1835 was introduced. So much for the foundation of the Lower Bengal coin- age which formed the chief currency of Calcutta until 1835, though modified, from time to time, notably in 1818 and 1832. The upper country in Bengal, however, was served from other mints, of which the chief were Benares and Farrukhabad, aud these were the only two * Marsden, Num. Orient., ii. 688.

BENARES. up-country mints used by the Company until 1830, The Benares mint was established by Raja Balwant Singh m 1730 (1142), and remained undernative control for twenty years after the Company took over the administration of the province in 1765.* The Company's Farrukhabad mint was founded in 1803 (1218), about a year after the Duab had been ceded to the Enghsh, and issued its " 45 san " rupee, in imitation of what was known as the " Lucknow 45 san sikkah "f struck at the Fathgarh mint of the Moghul : the 45fch year of 'Shah-Alam cor- responding to the year 1218 of the Hijrah (1803). The Benares mint which had for some time been issuing the Nawiib of Oudh's rupees, in 1806 was made to coin Company's coin, with the mint-mark of the trisul or Siva's trident. Neither mint enjoyed a long existence. That at Farrukhabad was closed in 1824 (1240) and that at Benares in 1830 (1246): J but, in accordance with the anomalous ways of the time the Benares mint ceased to issue its own rupees in 1819, and substituted an issue of Farrukhabad rupees from 1819 till its suppression in 1830. After that date, Sagar§ and Calcutta took up the duty of issuing Farrukhdhdd coins for the up-country circula- tion, until this branch of the coinage was suppressed in 1835. The various difficulties in the classification of the coins arising from this confusion of mints will be noticed further on. The following table, based upon Prinsep's data,|| shows the different classes of the Company's Bengal * Prinsep, op. cit., 25. Thurston, op. cit., 43. t It is not explained why it was called a " Lucknow " rupee, although it bore the name of Ahmadnagar Farrukhabad, and was struck at Fath- garh ; but this is merely an example of the confusion of the subject.

It will be noticed that oblique milling prevailed in all three mints until 1818-9, straight milling from 1819 to 1832-3, and plain edges from 1833-5. In September 1835 the Company established an English coinage with the head of William IV. in place of the name of the Moghul Emperor, and all the older issues were ordered to be suppressed. Turning to Bombay, we find that the plan of a uniform and fixed coinage was adopted there rather later than the establishment of the "19 san Murshidabad ^' currency in Bengal (1793), The mohrs and rupees of Plain edge and plain rim. civ BOMBAY, sun AT. Surat had long been the models on which the Bombay coins had been imitated ; but there arose discrepances in the fineness which obliged the Company to have their coins restruck at Surat. It was not till 1800 (1214) that the Bombay mint recommenced the issue of Surat rupees,* and not till 1804 (1219), the 46th year of Shah-Alam, that a fixed coinage was established.f The Bombay- Surat coins, both in gold and silver, bearing this year, were distinguished by a crown, but this mark was soon abandoned, and the familiar *' 46 san Surat rupees " are only distinguishable by their date from the native issues. Like the "19 san " rupee of Murshidabad, the " 46 san " rupee of Surat continued to be struck, irrespective of the true date, until the establishment of a general British currency in 1835. The Madras coinage, with the nominal mint Arkdt, has already been mentioned. The foregoing summary of the history of the coinage of the East India Company up to the establishment of an English currency in 1835 prepares the way for an examination of the reasons which have ruled the classi- fication of these issues in the present volume, and of the means of distinguishing between them and the contemporary native coinages. The history of the Company's coinage (for circulation among natives) before 1835 has been seen to fall into three periods : — 1. The Period of Prohibition ; when the Company either sent its bullion to be coined at the Moghul mints, or else issued illicit imitations, i.e. forgeries. * Prinsep, op. cit., 24. This year is the date of the suppression of the native Nawab or governor at Surat. + Atkins, Coins of British Possessions and Colonies (1889), says that Surat rupees were copied by the Company from 1733 to 1780 (1146 — ■ 1194), and then the 46 san rupee was introduced. This last state- ment is irreconcilable with the fact that Shiih 'Alam's 4Gth year corresponds to 1804. PERIODS IN THE COINAGE. cv 2. The Period of Concession ; when the Company obtained limited rights of coining, viz. : — a. To coin at Bombay, 1716 (1129), but not exer- cised until 1725 (1137). h. To copy Arkat rupees, 1742 (1154). c. To establish a mint at Calcutta, 1759 (1171). 3. The Period of Administration ; when the Company practically took over the administration and minting of the Moghul Empire, 1765 (1178). In classifying the coins these three periods must be treated in succession : — ( I.) During the first of these periods it is obviously im- possible to distinguish between the Moghul and the Com- pany' s issues. The latter were forgeries, and forgeries that were so good that they apparently could not be detected. (2.) In the second period there are only three mints to be considered : Bombay, Arkat (Madras), and Calcutta, corresponding to the three chief factories of the Com- pany and to the three modern Presidencies. We are not informed what coin the Bombay mint was authorized to issue in 1716, but it is termed '* coin, of the Empire," which must indicate coin such as the Moghul Emperor issued from his own mints : and any doubt which might be entertained on the subject is removed by the discovery, in the British Museum, of the very coins in question. They will be found described on pp. 278-9, and all bear the mint name j^t^ (or ^-^u) Munhai, pronounced Mumhai (Bombay).* The earliest, three in number, are dated a.h. 1131 (1719), and the year 1 [of Muhammad Shah], which shows that the * Marsden read this as " the Moneer of the maps," and Mr. Thurs- ton, op. cit., describes his no. 39 (PI. xvi. 4) as a Surat rupee, though it reads Munbai and is similar to nos. 7f) and SO, p 279, in the present volume. cvi SECOND PERIOD. BOMB A Y. privilege of coining, granted in 1716, was speedily exercised, and not postponed till 1725 as stated in the records.

What the figure 5 represents is a difficult problem, unless it be a bad copy of the ^ i in 0^ ^Ulw . It may refer to the relation of the coins \ to the rupee : for they all weigh 37 grains, which is about one-fifth of the full weight of a rupee. The 1725 issue, recorded in the annals, is represented by the rupee no. 72, p, 278, which bears the name of Muham- mad Shah and the regnal year 7, corresponding to 1137 (1725). A later rupee is dated in the eighteenth year of Muhammad Shah, and a.h. 1148 (1735), with a counter- stamp, probably a shrofi'-mark of a Moghul money- changer. A gold mohr is dated the 9th of Shah-'Alam, A.H. 1182 (1768); and a rupee bears the same regnal year, but the Hijrah date is 1188 (1774), an error not infrequent on Anglo-Moghul coins. Finally, two very badly engraved rupees, having no dates, and wearing a modern look, appear to have been issued at Calcutta for Bombay in 1800.* As to Arkat, there is little difficulty in distinguishing the coins struck with this name at Madras, Calcutta, and Pondicherry, from those issued by the Moghul authorities at Arkat itself. The latter have no particu- *| lar mark, whilst there is ample authority for identifying the trisul, rose, and crescent, as the respective symbols of the three European mints. Examples of the native issues are described on p. 239, and illustrated on PL xxvii. The Company's coins all bear the name of 'Alamgir II., and the sixth year of his reign (whatever the Hijrah year), * See the footnote, p. 279. ABKAT BUFEES. cvii whicli seems to suggest that the issue of Arkat rupees, though authorized in 1742 (1154), was not actually carried out till the reign of that Emperor 1754 — 61 (1167 — 75). The earliest dated issues in the British Museum are of a.h. 1213 — 4 (1798 — 1800), and are pre- cisely similar to the contemporary native coinage of Arkat, with the addition of the trisul Y- I^ 1815 a milled coinage was established (with the name of 'Alamgir II., and years 1172 and 6 of reign) which lasted until 1835, and was issued at Madras with the trisul and at Calcutta with the rose. The Calcutta issues have a straight milling, which, on the analogy of the Company's Bengal currency, would suggest that they were struck between 1818 and 1832. (See pp. 282 — 5, and PI. xxxii.). The French rupees, with the mint Arkat and the crescent, bear the name of Shah-'Alam more usually than that of 'Alamgir II., and, unlike the Euglish issues, they vary the regnal years on the obverse nearly in accordance with those of the Hijrah on the reverse.* (See pp. 286-7 and PI. xxxii.) The same symbols, the trisul and the crescent, appear on some rupees of Masulipatan, but here both belong to the period of the English occupation ; though the crescent is doubtless a survival from the French conquest. (See p. 288, PI. xxxii.) Of the Calcutta mint, authorized in 1759 (1171), very little is known in this second period. The onlyf occur- rence of this name is on the commemorative piece of 1176 already referred to (ante, p. Ixxxv., note), and on some copper coins (p. 289) . The Calcutta mint was almost ex- clusively employed in issuiug coins bearing the names of * M.

(3.) The tliinl period presents the chief difficulties in classification. It extends from the assumption of administrative powers by the Company in Bengal in 1765 to the inauguration of a European currency in 1835, during the whole of which interval the name of Shah-^Alam appeal's on the Company's coinage (except that of *'Arkat"), although this Emperor died in 1806. As Shah-'Alam's authority was purely nominal, and he was generally under British or Maratha control, it is idle to seek for any individual exercise of monetary powers by the Emperor personally. All that has to be done is to draw the line between the coinage issued in his name by the provincial governors (however inde- pendent, or however much under the real authority of the English) and the coinage issued at the Company's mints, which were few and well known. (See table above, p. ciii.) The latter alone can be properly termed Company's coins, however much other money may have been supervised by their officers. We have first to determine what coins must be placed under Shilh-' Alain. Under this head are classed all those coins which bear his name, and have legible mints and consistent dates {i.e. dates in which the regnal and Hijrah years are in accord). A large number of these coins were issued by one or other of the numerous quasi-independent states which sprang up all over India upon the decay o£ the Moghul authority ; but so long as they show the Emperor's name, and so long as their dates tally with his reign, they must be classed as his coinage, though he was only a figure head. This principle of classification excludes a large number of coins which do not fulfil the conditions here laid down : these will be referred to later. Shah-'Alam's coinage is essentially SHAE-'ALAMS COINAGE. cix of a local character, and is therefore divided under the several mints. It is curious that there seem to be no specimens of Shah-'Alam's coinage issued at his first capital^ Allahabad. His most impoi'taut coinage was at Shdhjahdndbdd, modern Dehll, where he can hardly be said to have been master; since he was a puppet there in the hands of the Marathas from 1771-88 (1185-1203) and their prisoner from 1788 until Lord Lakers victory over them, March 14, 1803 (1217), when Delhi was administered for a year or two by a British resident. There are very few coins of this mint belonging to the Maratha period, and these present no peculiarities: but the British occupation is prominently signalized on the coinage. The British lion, which was the Company's crest, appears to the right of the imperial umbrella on rupees of 1218 (which year began in April 1803), but in deference, it is said, to the prejudices of the blind Emperor, who was told that the English had engraved an unclean animal on the coins, the lion gave place to the ciuquefoil (the badge adopted on the coinage by the Company)* on rupees of 1218 and 1219 (1803-4). In the same way, on the large thin issues (probably nisdrs, see above, p. Ixxxvi.) of this mint, instead of the tree which usually stands beside the umbrella, we find the * Although a rose with five petals formed part of the arms of the " Old" Company, at least as early as 1677 (cf. plate in Journal of Indian Art, no. 31), it was not found in the arms of the " New" Com- pany, or of the Honourable United Company. The new arms granted in 1698 were : Argent a cross gules, on a shield in the dexter quarter the arms of France and England quarterly within a compartment, adorned with an Imperial crown ; for the crest, upon a helm on a toree or wreath argent and gales, a lion rampant gardant or, holdino- between his paws an imperial crown proper, mantled gules, doubled argent ; supported by two lions gardant or, each holding a banner argent charged with a cross gules.

(See pp. 234-6 and PI. xxvii.) Shah-'Alam's coinage at Etawa, Ahmadabad, Arkat, Akbarabad, Najibabad (the capital of the Rohila chief Najib-ad-daulah) and other mints, calls for no special notice; he died in 1221 (1806). We now come to mints which j^assed from native control into the Company's, such as Benares, and the problem to be determined is where the native coinage ends and the Company^s begins. The older Benares type (represented in the Museum from a.h. 1183 to 1196) was exchanged for a new issue, distinguished by a large flower of four petals, at or before 1203 (1787-8). These coins bear a double regnal year, one referring to Shah-' Alam, the other invariably 1 7. Marsden f explains this latter as being the date of the succes- sion (1191 A.H.), of Asaf-ad-daulah, the Nawab-Vazir of Oudb, under whose authority these coins were issued : the year 1191, of course, being the 17th year of Shah- 'Alam, who came to the throne in 1173. This type of Benares coinage runs on, as to regnal years, to the 49th year of Shah-'Alam, which corresponds to 1221, the year of his death; but the Hijrah dates include 1222, 1224, and 1225 (1810 a.d.), all later than the Emperor's death. (See p. 244, PI. xxviii.) Now we have already seen that Prinsep says that the Benares mint remained under native control for twenty years after the Company took over the administration of Bengal in 1765. It is distinctly stated by the Indian historians that on the death of the Nawab Vazir Shuja'- * The same arrangement was adopted by Muhammad Akbar II. and Bahadur II., the two puppet Emperors who succeeded Shah- 'Alara, until the Indian Mutiny brought about the end of the effete dynasty. t Num. Orient, 693. BENARES. cxi ad-daulah id a.h. 1191, the English received the districts of BenareSj Jaunpur, Ghazipur^ and Chunar, from his successor Asaf-ad-daulah, in consideration of his being confirmed in his post, and these parts were accordingly annexed. The coins with the special year of the Nawab of Oudh seem to disprove this statement : the native control, according to them, must have lasted up to 1810. On the other hand, the only milled Benares rupee in the collection (no. 66, p. 277, PI. xxxi), clearly belonging to the Company^s issue of 1806 — 1819, bears the Nawab's number 17 and the four-petal flower, exactly like the earlier issues, but the Hij rah year 1229 (1814). More- over, it is distinctly stated that the Company issued coins at Benares from 1806. We must therefore con- clude either that the ComjDany permitted the Nawab to go on coining till 1810, or that they began their own coinage at Benares by copying his. But that the Com- pany did issue coins of a pronounced native type, without the collar or milled edge, is shown by the series of eleven coins described on p. 276 (PI. xxxi). These belong to the older Benares type, prior to the four-petal-flower type, but the fabric is unquestionably more modern, and the fact that a fixed regnal year (26) is retained, whilst the Hijrah years range from 1212 to 1233 (1797 to 1817), is a probable indication of European negligence. These are, in my opinion, Company's coins. And if so, this is a reason why the flower type should not be theirs, for it is improbable that they issued both simul- taneously. Thus we have — Old Benares type 1183-1196. Flower-type (with Nawab's year 17) . . . 1203-1225. Company's ?/-a^/ve s^i/Ze and regnal year 26 . 1212-1233. „ milled flower type and Nawab's year 1 7, 1229. The next transitional mint, first native, then belonging cxii 8URAT. to the Company, is Sitrat. The Company coined here at the native mint and imitated native Surat coins at Bombay in the first and second periods (see above, p. xclvii. ff.), but illegally : they only possessed the right to coin at Bombay for internal circulation. Whatever coins they may have issued before 1800 with the name Surat are indistinguishable, so far as I know, from the Moghul coinage. Prinsep tells us that in 1800 the Bombay mint recommenced the issue of Surat rupees,* and the date is confirmed by the circumstance that the English, who had owned the fort of Surat since 1611 (1020), and had become supreme in the city since 1759, took the final step of abolishing the nominal authority of the native Nawab in ISOO.f The earliest specimeu of this new issue of Surat rupees and mohrs by the Company is the quarter-mohr, No. 81, p. 280. It shows but a portion of the usual inscription, and no Hi jrah or regnal year ; but it is marked with a crowned head, in token of English fabrication, and it has the figures 1802 engraved (not counterstruck) on a label on the reverse. The next dated specimens have the regnal year 46 (which, as has been seen, was a fixed date), a crown in place of the third point over «\.w, and (on the silver coins) the Christian date 1825. The next issue resembles this last, except in the absence of the crown : there is nothing to show that it is a Company's coinage except the year 46 (1804) which is posterior to any native rule in Surat. The style and fabric of all these coins is native. In Nos. 87 ff., however, the milled edge is employed, and coins of this type continue down to the establishment of the European currency of 1835. The Company's " Murshiddhdd " coinage is known to * Op. cit., 24. Eupee, here as before, is used as a generic term for coin, and includes gold mohrs. t Hunter, Imp. Gazetteer of India, s.v. MUBSHIBABAD. cxiii have begun sooa after their assumption of administra- tive authority in Bengal in 1765 (1178), but it does not follow that it began at Marshidabad itself. The Nawab of Bengal undoubtedly continued to issue Shah-' Alamos money at Murshidabad, Patnah (also called 'Azimabad), and Dhakka, for some time later .^ The Murshidabad coi ns Nos. 1188-1198, ranging from a.h. 1180 to 119^ (1766- 1776 ff.), which I have ascribed to the native mint, are of a totally distinct fabric from any of those on pp. 267 to 273, which belong to the Company^s coinage. The regnal and Hijrah years, moreover, are consistent, which cannot be said of many of the Company's issues. If it be urged that the Company's badge, a cinquefoil, occurs on Nos. 1195-6, the natural reply is that the cinquefoil, like everything else in the Company's imitative issues, must have existed on the native currency before it could be copied. On the other hand, the issues of the regnal year 10, 1182-3 (1768) with dotted rims, described on pp. 267-8, although they present consistent regnal and Hijrah years, are marked by their fabric as the work of the Company's servants. The same fabric as that of the year 10 is seen in the issue of the year 11 (p. 269), and 12, 13, 15, and 19; but in those of 19 the regnal year for the first time remains stationary, while the Hijrah years move on through 1196, 1197, 1198, 1201, 1202, to 1203, a tolerably sure sign of the Company's handiwork. If these last belong to the Company's series, so do those of the regnal year 10. They are doubtless the coins referred to in the Company's regulation of 1793, in issuing the " 19 san" coinage : "the rupees of the 11th, 12th, and 15th sun were indeed directed to be received equally with the 19th sun sicca rupee, but this * See above, p. Ixxxv. P cxiv FABBUKHABAD. was a tempoT'aiy measure/' A glance at Plates xxix and XXX will show the difference between this fabric and that of the native issues. The deduction from what has been said above is that the Nawab went on coining at Murshidabad for some years, whilst the Company were simultaneously striking coins, with the name of Murshidabad, at Calcutta. This was the I'esult of the treaty made in 1 765 between the Governor and Council of Fort William and the Nawab of Bengal by which the latter agreed to " cause the rupees coined at Calcutta to pass in every respect equal to the Siccas of Moorshedabad, without any deduction of Batta."* It is true that the native mints were withdrawn ''soon after the commencement of the Company's administration,"t but the phrase is elastic, and the native mints may have continued to issue Murshidabad rupees for a dozen years, whilst the Com- pany was going through the experiments of the regnal years 10 to 15, leading up to the well-known " 19 san sikkah,'' the various stages of which are described on pp. 272-3. The trial piece of 1784, p. 271, is included in this volume as the earliest milled coin of the Company. The inscription on the edge {'' United East India Company "), however, would not have commended it to natives. The Farrukhabad issues call for little notice. The native coinages run from a.h. 1179 to 1218, though the regnal year 39 is misused on the last four coins. The Company's issues of " 45 san " rupees, with three suc- cessive varieties of milling or plain rim, are represented on pp. 274-5 and PI xxxi. * Thurston, op. cit, 3i. f Kegulation of 1793 : Ibid. 38. ( cxv ) § 10. LOCAL COINAGE. In spite of this somewhat intricate examination of the various issues of the 18th and 19th centuries in India, a considerable number of coins have necessarily been omitted. These are what are known as "Indian Local Coinages.'^ They consist of the issues of the numerous petty states which attained to various stages of semi-independence or nominal dependence during the decay of the Moghul empire, and especially during the reigu of Sliah-'Alam. They generally bear this Emperor's name, often long after his decease, but their dates are frequently fictitious, the regnal year bears no agreement with that of the Hijrah, and worst of all the mint itself is often wanting, or is merely represented by a symbol, which not seldom stands for more than one mint, and which too often it is impossible to identify with any mint. Had these local issues been carefully described and engraved when they were current, there would be no diflBculty in the subject ; and the plain reason that they defy classification is that all those who were living at the time when they were in circulation are long dead, and even Pz'insep, with all the materials which were at his hand in 1833, was compelled to acknowledge the hopeless confusion of this branch of the coinage. What Prinsep could not effect with his opportunities in 1833, no one can accomplish after sixty years have diminished or abolished every source of informa- tion. The complexity of the subject may best be illustrated by a quotation from Prinsep's work.* He based his re- marks on reports presented by government officers in * Useful Tables,, 27 ff. cxvi LOCAL COLNAGE. Ajmir, Malwah, and tlie Narbada provinces in reply to questions circulated tliougli tlie Mint Committee in 1818 and 1823; but in spite of sucli valuable materials he was forced to admit the incompleteness of his infor- mation. "We have before remarked," he says, "that none of the coins now [1833] forming the circulation of Hindustan bear any other name than that of Shah-'Alam,* and aUhough we have no perfect information of the origin or date of the mints of Piinah, Nagpur, or of the principal states of Eajputana, still we may safely assume that, until the authority of Dehh' was annihilated, the representative of the monarch in the various suhalis, or provinces, alone exercised the privilege of coining ; and that even when it was assumed by chieftains already in actual independence, the form of a sa7iad or per- mission Avas obtained from the Emperor by purchase or extor- tion. The petty Raja of Dattiah, for instance, was indignant [in 1824] at the supposition that he had opened his mint without authority, and of all the chiefs within Lieut. Moody's agency [at Bangal and Kantal], Raja Pratap Singh of Chatra- pur was the only one who coidd not produce his authority. The chiefs of Jhansi and Jalaon cited the sanction of the Peshwa ; the Tahri Raja, the tacit permission of the English. No notice, however, of mints was found in any of the sanads or treaties to which that officer had access. " When first established, the mints were no doubt in most cases made the source of fraudulent profit to the government, by the issue of a debased coin, which was supported at an enhanced nominal value through the interdiction of the purer standards of neighbouring districts. A Hindu prince, or the minister Avho rules for him, is in general a money-dealer : thus at Kota the executive authority has a shroff in each town, and participates in all the benefits arising out of money operations in the market " The list of mints Avhich have sprung up in Central India is so formidable that it is difficult to attempt any classification of * This is not strictly accurate. Tlie Ark^t rupees, for example, bore the name of 'Alamgir II. LOCAL COIXAGE. cxvii tliem. Mr. Wilder, in 1819, enumerates the following rupees current in Ajmir: — Old Ajmir, Srisalii, Krishnagarh, Kocha- nam, Chitor, Jaipur, Hali, Jodhpiir, Udaipiir, Shahpurah, Pratapgarh, Kota, Biindl, and Bhilwara. " Mr. Maddock furnishes an equally long list from the Nar- bada : — Panna, Chatrapiir, Sironj, Shansi, Chanda, Srinagar, Nagpur, Garrah-Kota, Balasahi, Kathgarh, Tahri, Bhopal, Sohilgpdr, Sudhaurah, Jalaon, TJjjain, Isagarh, " The difficulty is also increased by the threefold appellations given to coins : first, from the place of fabrication, as Indore, Ujjain, Sagar proper, etc. ; second, from the person issuing them, as Sindhiasiihi from Sindhia, Balasahi from Balaji Pandit, Gaur Sahi from 'Ali Gaur, afterwards Shah-'Alam, Muti-Sahi, a well-known Allahabad coin of Mr. Achmuty ; third, from some distinguishing symbol impressed on the field, as Trisuli, from the ' trident ' of Siva ; Shamshiri from the figure of a ' sword ' on the Haidarabad coin ; INIachhlisahi and Shirsahi from the ' fish,' and ' tiger ' of the old and new Lucknow rupee, etc. There are also other titles common to different localities, as Chalan, ' current,' Half, ' of the present time ; ' and the distinction into Sans or different years of Shah-'Alam's reign " In Ajmir the Srisahi rupee, coined by Tantia, formed in 1815 the principal currency ; it has been partly supplanted by the Farrukhabad rupee since the province came into our possession. " In Kotil there are three mints, at Kota, Tantia Patan, and Gangroun, coining on an average thirty-six lakhs per annum ; the currency is not debased. " The Holkar currency of Indore, Harda, and Makeswar and Ujjain rupee, are nearly at par with the Farrukhabad, but they maintain an unequal contest with the Salimsahf rupee, coined by the Kaja of Pratapgarh, of which there are three kinds " The northern parts of the Narbada territories were sup- plied with a base currency struck at Jabalpur by I^ana Ghatka in 1800 ; this mint was suppressed on cession to the English. The southern part (Dakhantir) had a rupee of still lower value struck at Sohagpiir, where a mint was established in 1810 : it was abolished in 1818 by Mr. Molony. These rupees passed at par with Chanda and Nagpiir rupees, the chief issue of Berar. cxviii LOCAL COINAOE. " The Sagar mint was set up in 1779 by the Peshwa's officer at Garrali Mandlah, and coined about seventeen lakhs of Baia- sahi rupees per annum. Its operation continued under Mr. Maddock, who, to counteract the forgery going on at Garrah, inserted the word ' Sagar ' in small English characters on the die. The new Sagar mint, erected in 1824, is now rapidly removing all the old coins from circulation. " The standard of the Marathi Government at Nagpiir, to which all the neighbouring mints were doubtless intended to conform, presents itself [even since the appointment of a British resident] one of the worst examples of irregularity and depreciation " In the Haidarabad country the government of the Nizam or of his Hindu minister has not been behindhand with its Marathi rivals in the adulteration of the local currency ; and by way of introducing greater confusion and vexation, there is a superior standard for the Palace and the Residency, an inferior for the city, and a Imkm chalami, or forced token, the precise nature of which is dubious. The worst species are struck at Narayanpat. ''In Bandalkhand the circulation consisted chiefly of Bala Eao's rupee, struck at Srinagar, near Panna- This mint issued at the time of its institution, in 1794, about eighteen lakhs per annum, but after 1819 the coinage fell to four lakhs. The same prince set iip a mint at Jalaon, his capital, in 1809 ; its issue was at first six lakhs, and is now diminished to one-third of that amount. "The Hansi mint of Rao Rain Chand dates from 1780; it issued three lakhs. Kuar Pratap Singh's at Chatrapiir dates from 1816. The mints of Panna (1780), Samtar (of 18o8) were on a most insignificant scale and have been put down. The Dattiah mint dates from 1784." The Korah, Allahabad, Agrah, Saharanpur, Baraili, Kalpi, Etawa, Mathura, Panipat, and other rupees, belonging "more immediately to the Dehli group," were coined only on particular occasions or for short periods, and the mints " have long disappeared from our list.^' It is obvious that the local issues described in the LOCAL COIXAGE. cxix preceding extracts cannot properly be classed with the imperial currency of the Moghuls, but form a series apart. On this ground^ and on account of the impos- sibility of identifying most of the mints with any approach to precision, they have been excluded from the present Catalogue. Their proper place would be in a catalogue of the minor coinages which sprang up on the decay of the central power, in which the coins of the Sikhs, the Mariithas, and other modern Indian money, would also find a place. It must be confessed, however, that the line between the local and imperial coinage is hard to draw during Shah-'Alam's reign, and some of the coins described under this Emperor might perhaps be classed with equal reason among the local issues. In conclusion I have to thank Dr. Rieu and the Keeper of Coins for reading and interpreting the Persian distichs ; and Mr. E. J. Rapson for deciphering the Nagari and Bengali inscriptions on the copper coins of the East India Company. My indebtedness to various books and articles is duly recorded in numerous references in the preceding pages. STANLEY LANE-POOLE. Athkn^um Club, May 30, 1892.
