This coin marks the significant beginning of square coinage in the tola category, making it a highly desirable and historically important piece. It bears a minor test mark/scratch on the obverse, which remains virtually invisible to the naked eye and does not detract from its overall appeal. A remarkable opportunity for advanced collectors.
