<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bonedigger, post: 159025, member: 4367&quot;]Talk about a strange combination, but here it is. </p><p>////////////////////////////</p><p>Size: 33mm wide, weight - 11.5g.</p><p>Notes: Islamic legend within a square, &quot;1477&quot; in arabic numbers in the top obverse margin (the meaning is unknown), followed by a star of David with Hindu inscriptions. Dated to 957 AH = 1550 AD. Very large/huge, 33mm in diameter, 11.5 grams.&nbsp; Islam was the religion of Suri Sultan of Delhi, but his power extended to Bengal along with the protection of Hindu and Jewish trade caravans in the region. Tri-Inscription coins in his name were issued throughout his reign and this one comes from the famed Taj Mahal where it was used as an offering. Scarce, difficult to find.</p><p>///////////////////////////</p><p><br /></p><p>Take Care</p><p>Ben</p><p><img src="http://www.jabpublish.com/tajmahal.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
