Lot 1612
SIKH EMPIRE: AR rupee (11.12g), Anandgarh, VS1841 year 118, KM-30, Herrli-02.02.04, with ahad below reverse, bold strike, choice EF, RR, ex Hakim Hamidi.
Herrli did not note the presence of the year 118 (the number 118 above the word sana), presumably because he never found a specimen that revealed the very top of the obverse die. Had he seen this, he would likely have created a 6th type for VS1841 at Anandgarh.
