As \u003cstrong\u003ePrince Salim\u003c\/strong\u003e, he established a separate court there during \u003cstrong\u003e1600–1604\u003c\/strong\u003e, asserting his independence from his father, Emperor Akbar. The city also became a centre of his artistic patronage, where painters and calligraphers worked under his protection. Struck much later, in \u003cstrong\u003eAH 1031 \/ RY 17\u003c\/strong\u003e, the present \u003cstrong\u003e“Hamesha Noor” couplet rupee\u003c\/strong\u003e belongs to his established imperial reign. Its verse associates the enduring radiance of Allahabad’s coinage with the name of \u003cstrong\u003eJahangir, son of Akbar Shah\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eRead against the city’s earlier history, the words \u003cstrong\u003e“ibn Akbar Shah”\u003c\/strong\u003e carry particular resonance: at the very place where Salim had once challenged his father’s authority, his imperial coinage now explicitly proclaimed his descent from Akbar. The rupee thus offers an evocative connection between \u003cstrong\u003eAllahabad, Jahangir’s youthful ambitions and his later identity as heir to the Mughal throne\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGraded by NGC as MS 63,\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVery Rare in this rare.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45533083959319,"sku":null,"price":60000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0806\/7576\/6295\/files\/8239672-005R.png?v=1789852806","url":"https:\/\/numiauctions.com\/products\/jahangir-ah-1014-1037-1605-1627-ad-allahabad-mint-silver-rupee-hamesha-noor-couple-ngc-ms-63t","provider":"NumiIndia Auctions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
