| Aanvullende informatie |
Brajanath Gohain served as a minister under Chandrakanta Singha during the final, chaotic years of the Ahom kingdom, when Burmese invasions had fractured royal authority so thoroughly that multiple claimants and their nobles were issuing coinage almost independently. This piece dates to that terminal period — within five years, the Anglo-Burmese War of 1824–26 would end Burmese occupation and deliver Assam to the East India Company under the Treaty of Yandabo.
Coinage struck in the names of nobles rather than kings is unusual even for late Ahom practice, making this fraction a documentary artifact of political fragmentation as much as a monetary one.
