A single original zodiac mohur in good AU condition today will cost approx. $100,000+ and in MS considerably more. Later replicas, if graded and slabbed by one of the reputable companies, will and should clearly state that they are replicas and will only cost $2-3,000.</span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)"><br /></span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)">If it is too good to be true.....it probably is!!!</span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)"><br /></span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)">Also depends which country you were offered the coin in. Many of the historically significant items found there way out of the sub-continent during the British rule and better examples are generally available through major UK and US auction houses. The bulk of the coins available in India, Pakistan or Bangladesh are usually heavily circulated and overpriced due to restrictions on bringing antiques into or out of those countries. I have tried to source silver and gold coins in these countries but most of them are merely bullion quality at best. By contrast I was fortunate to acquire an MS66 gold mohur (my highest graded 17th Century mohur) from sources outside of the above countries</span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)"><br /></span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)">[ATTACH=full]981530[/ATTACH] </span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)"><br /></span></font></span></p> <p style="text-align: left"><span style="font-size: 16px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: rgb(20, 20, 20)">[ATTACH=full]981531[/ATTACH] </span></font></span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
