| Additional information |
Yoga Prakash Malla ruled Patan — one of the three rival Newar kingdoms of the Kathmandu Valley — during a period of intensifying political fragmentation that would ultimately leave all three kingdoms vulnerable to Prithvi Narayan Shah's conquest in the 1760s. Patan struck its own coinage independently of Kathmandu and Bhaktapur, and the mohar served as the primary silver unit across all three mints, each kingdom's issues distinguishable by their unique combination of religious symbols tied to the ruling dynasty's particular devotional allegiances.
