Humayun, Silver Rupee, 11.21g, first reign, Adl Bangala Mint, AH 945, Obv: Shahada in cent

Humayun, Silver Rupee, 11.21g, first reign, Adl Bangala Mint, AH 945, Obv: Shahada in centre with invocation “Yarzaq Allah Man Tasha’a Ba-ghayr Hisab” within a circular border; names of Caliphs and titles around, Rev: “Muhammad Humayun Ghazi” in circle in centre, other titles with mint-name and AH date in margins (G&G# B950). Very fine, extremely rare. Humayun, while on a campaign against the Afghans under Sher Shah Suri in Bengal, struck both Tankas and Rupees in the same year AH 945. Both these issues are very rare and demonstrably, a good indicator of the beginning and spread of the ‘Rupee’
