Although the sovereign Sikh rule by Maharaja Ranjit Singh began in 1801AD, the Sikhs had established control over Lahore in 1765AD itself and had started minting and circulating their own coins.
Despite their large and very interesting variety, and circulation over a large territory for more than eighty years, the study of Sikh coins - the symbols of Khalsa Sovereignty, has largely remained neglected.
Sikh Coins group is dedicated to academic and intellectual interaction on Sikh Numismatics, including the numismatics of Cis-Sutlej States such as Nabha, Patiala, Kaithal, Malerkotla etc.
You are invited to join the Sikh Coins Group.
The coin depicted here is a silver Nanakshahi rupee of Amritsar mint of the frozen year series VS 1885. This coin is of the year Vikrami Samvat 1885/1902 (1828/1845AD) with a "Pataka" (flag) below "Chhatar" on the obverse. The symbol of a beautiful rose on the reverse (mint side) below the "Zarb" makes it a unique coin.
