India, Mughal Empire, Shah Jahan (AH 1037-1068 / 1628-1658 AD), gold Mohur, Surat, Year 2, month of Azar (KM 255.6). NGC MS64.

NGC Certification 6135045-001

Provenance:
Ex Akola Hoard. The hoard was found along a riverbank near the city of Akola and is believed to account for the entire mintage of this issue. It is thought that the coins were being transported to pay for military action near Golkanda but never arrived. Whether a sudden monsoon flood drowned the couriers, or something more nefarious took place, the coins remained lost for nearly 350 years until their discovery in 1974.
