This coin is tangible proof of Nur Jahan's power, as she places her own name on the coin, although nominally the issuer is Jahangir. Upon his accession, Shah Jahan made it a capital crime to use these coins and ordered them all melted, accounting for their rarity now. The Lahore mint coins of Nur Jahan are much scarcer than the Patna coins. https://indiannumismaticgallery.com/
