Silver
Awadh, Asaf ud-Daula (1775-1797 AD) silver rupee, Anupnagar Shahabad mint, 11.10g. Trisul mint-mark, struck in the name of Shah Alam II, AH (1)189/RY 17, M&D 4.28.
Extremely fine, Extremely rare.
Anupnagar-Shahabad is perhaps the rarest Mint of Awadh, known from not more than 3-4 specimens, including one in the British Museum from the RB Whitehead collection. The location of this Shahabad is not certain, but it is most likely Shahabad near Qanauj. The name 'Anup nagar' indicates that the issue of the coins was probably linked with the powerful courtier Anup Gir Gossain, a.k.a. Himmat Bahadur, who served as an important mercenary commander in the army of the Nawab of Awadh. The mint mark of Trisul corroborates this connection. The Gossains were famous as 'warrior ascetics' and renowned for their valour.

Baroda, silver rupee, Sankheda mint, in the name of Shah Alam II, 11.23g.
Extremely fine, Rare.
There is evidence that a mint was operated as Sankheda by two Goldsmiths namely Jassa Soni and Kaka Soni during (1790-1810 AD).These coins must therefore be attributed to Govind Rao Gaikwad (2nd Reign) or Manaji Rao Gaikwad as regent for Sayaji Rao I Gaikwad.

Baroda - Sayaji Rao III Gaikwad, pattern rupee struck in lead/zinc, dated VS 19- -, unlisted in KM and perhaps unique so far, 8.83g. Obv: Profile bust of the Maharaja to right; Marathi legend Shri Sayajirao Ma. Gayakwad in exergue. Rev: In a foliate wreath, a beaded circle with denomination, a scimitar and two digits of the date inscribed within.
Slight weakness in striking on obverse otherwise Extremely fine, Extremely rare.
In 1885-86, the state of Baroda found itself under increased pressure from the imperial government to stop its mint producing hand-struck coins known as 'Babashahi' rupees. To alleviate this situation, the Maharaja Sayaji Rao III decided to mechanise the coinage production and introduce milled or 'Kaldar' rupees. As a precursor to launching mechanised production, several attempts were made to prepare dies and patterns were struck. One of the designs of these patterns, dated VS 1943, was struck modelling the coins on British Indian design with a bust on obverse and a value within a wreath on the reverse. A few strikes of this design are known in copper. However, this is the first time that a pattern in a non-copper metal has come to light and it has the last two digits of the date missing suggesting they were to be put on the final dies using movable punches. As such this is an important 'missing link' in the history of mechanized coin production at Baroda.
