Comments

Nawanagar was founded in AD 1540 by Jam Sri Rawalji. This coin belongs to the series of dump coins issued by Sataji Vibhaji, the 3rd ruler of Nawanagar from AD 1569 to AD 1608.

These are stylized imitations of the coins of Muzaffar Shah III (AD 1560 to AD 1574) of Sultanate of Gujarat (India – Islamic) and bear the inscription, ‘Sri Jamji’, the title of all rulers of Nawanagar.

This coin differs from copper Dokdo Y#3 (N#40318), rather resembles silver 1 Kori KM#5 (N#242861).
