About extremely fine and ra re. The legend reads: Ś ri Ś ri Radha/ Krishna Charana Ka/mala Makaranda/ Madhukarasya. Ś ri Ś ri Svarga/ Deva Ś ri Brajna/tha Simha Nrpasya/ Ś ake 1739. According to the Assamese Buranjis, the priests were not willing to install Brajnatha formally as king because one of his ears had been mutilated – it was a requirement of an Ahom king that he should not have any physical injury or deformation. So his young son, Purandara Simha was summoned and installed as king in his place. Brajnatha presumably acted as regent for his son and had no qualms about issuing coins in his own name. No coins are known struck in the name of his son. Part of the David Fore Collection of British Indian Coins. £2000-3000
