The gold mohurs are different because they are sharper uncircularised coins and the Shah Jahan mohur has much of the script on the coin itself.</p><p><br /></p><p>Having said that, in the Persian script the letter Z is similar to the letter R except it has a dot on top. On the first line the dot is missing because it is struck off flan. So normally if one did not know the language, one would read it as:</p><p><br /></p><p>Badshah Ghari instead of Badshah Ghazi.</p><p><br /></p><p>I applaud your patience, perseverance and effort.....well done,</p><p><br /></p><p>Fatehpur Sikri was Akbar&#039;s folly and the capital soon shifted back to Agra. Later Delhi became the capital and the Mughal Empire was governed from the Red Fort in Delhi.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
